[ [link removed] ]Tell 'Moscow' Mitch: Stop Blocking Election Security! Add my name

PFAW Member,

Just hours after Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s testimony on Tuesday,
which was laden with repeated warnings about the ongoing threat Russia and
other foreign entities present for our elections, Senate Majority Leader
Mitch McConnell BLOCKED a set of bills that are designed to secure our
elections from foreign interference.

[ [link removed] ]Sign the petition today and DEMAND that Republicans begin to take
seriously the ongoing threats to our democracy from foreign governments
interfering in our elections>> 

These bills are commonsense measures to secure our elections from foreign
interference and include, among other things, items like:

* Requiring campaigns to report to federal authorities any attempts by
foreign entities to interfere in US elections

* Keeping voting machines disconnected from the internet to prevent
hacking

* Requiring the use of paper ballots to ensure that there is an
auditable paper trail

* Ensuring that states have secured and updated voting equipment –
replacing outdated and potentially vulnerable devices

Yet despite what is a reasonable, bipartisan effort to secure our
elections, Mitch McConnell labeled the bills as “partisan legislation”
that was designed to give Democrats “political benefit.”

WHAT?!?

Rather than take the necessary steps to secure our elections from foreign
interference, Mitch McConnell would rather WELCOME the continued ability
of the Kremlin and other foreign adversaries to meddle in our elections as
long as it gives Republicans an advantage in winning elections!

[ [link removed] ]We must fight back against this egregious assault on our democracy –
sign the petition!>>

Whether or not Republicans begin to take seriously the real and growing
threat that foreign interference is having on our democracy, we must
continue holding them accountable for their inaction and DEMAND that they
DO THEIR JOBS and take steps to secure our elections.

Thank you,

- Zach, PFAW
