This comes on the heels of guidance we've previously made available highlighting steps that law enforcement can take to address and prevent voter intimidation,
law.georgetown.edu/icap/wp-conten…, as well as /2
a fact sheet on voter intimidation, which lists key laws, what kinds of conduct could constitute voter intimidation, and what to do if a person experiences voter intimidation, bit.ly/voterintimidat… (and now also available in Spanish: law.georgetown.edu/icap/wp-conten…). /3 Image
We've also created fact sheets for all 50 states explaining the laws barring unauthorized private militia groups & what to do if groups of armed individuals are near a polling place or voter registration drive: bit.ly/50factsheets /4 Image

2019 has been quite a year for @GeorgetownICAP & our work to defend the Constitution!

In April, @GeorgetownICAP proudly represented the U.S. House of Representatives at the Supreme Court in challenging the addition of a citizenship question to the 2020 Census--a challenge that, in June, successfully blocked the question. /3 law.georgetown.edu/news/georgetow…
