John,

The 2020 elections are rapidly approaching, and Americans are still being attacked online by foreign adversaries.

Our new report, “Digital Disaster,” demonstrates that it’s now more important than ever for Congress to protect our democracy.

Read Meredith’s email below and then sign the petition to tell Congress you want them to secure our elections by passing the bipartisan Honest Ads Act!

Thank you for supporting our democracy,

Sign your name to tell Congress to secure our elections:
“Foreign adversaries continue to interfere in our elections. It’s time for Congress to act. Passing the bipartisan Honest Ads Act is the best first step to preventing hidden foreign disinformation campaigns and protecting our elections. Let’s send a message to bad foreign actors: Don’t Mess With US.”

John,

Between 2015 and 2017, over 11 million Americans saw Facebook ads paid for by Russian government-linked entities.

Foreign adversaries are using social media as a tool to divide Americans and interfere in our elections — and they will continue to do so unless Congress takes action now.

That’s why today we released a hard-hitting new report that shows how Facebook, Twitter, and Google’s advertising policies are woefully inadequate and leave Americans in the dark about who is trying to influence them online.

Our report, “Digital Disaster,”¹ exposes the flaws in the policies of the major social media platforms and makes the case for why we need to pass the Honest Ads Act to protect Americans from foreign disinformation campaigns.

Add your name: we need transparency in our elections. Tell Congress to put an end to the divisive online disinformation campaigns launched by foreign adversaries.

The bipartisan Honest Ads Act would help prevent paid foreign disinformation campaigns on the largest online platforms by implementing a disclosure system for online political advertising similar to rules that are already in place for TV and radio.

Tell Congress to pass the Honest Ads Act and protect our elections today!

Thanks for all you do,

Meredith McGehee
