John,

Congress has an opportunity to ensure voters decide the outcome of
presidential elections – not corrupt politicians. It's as simple as
updating and strengthening the Electoral Count Act (ECA), and they could
bring a proposal to a vote any day.

This week, the bill cleared a critical milestone after being passed out of
the Senate Rules Committee by near-unanimous consent.^1 But instead of
voting on this critical legislation, there’s a chance senators will skip
town to campaign for themselves in these final weeks before Election Day.

late.

The ECA spells out the process for states to deliver their Electoral
College votes to Congress, and how Congress counts those votes to declare
a winner of the presidential election. But the current text is confusing
and poorly written, leaving ample room for corrupt politicians to swoop in
and claim that they can overturn the voice of the voters.

It seems like a no-brainer, right? By reforming the ECA, the Senate will
make our government work better, clarify the role of the Vice President as
ceremonial, and prevent states from going against the will of the people.

The American people should decide the outcome of elections, not corrupt
politicians. That’s the very basis of our democracy. Let’s make sure that
remains a reality.

your senators
to ask them to put country over party and close the loopholes in the ECA?
Together, we can take an important step to protect the integrity of our
elections against those who want to destroy it.

If enough voters call in, senators will be more inclined to take this
seriously. Let’s make sure our voice is heard.

Onward,
