In 2018 Sen Menendez introduced an election security bill that included conducting post-election risk limiting audits & cyber security standards

McConnell didn’t put it to a vote😡

I want HR1 but let’s not put all our eggs in an HR1 basket.

Put all these past bills to a vote

In 2017 Sen Gillibrand first introduced the Voter Empowerment Act. It included online voter registration & it required states to audit federal election results.

Mitch McConnell killed it & refused to bring it to a vote😡

It was reintroduced in 2021. Let’s bring it to the floor.

In 2019 Sen Klobucher introduced the SAFE act requiring voter verified paper ballots, establishing increased cyber security & risk limiting audits

Of course Mitch McConnell wouldn’t let it go to the floor😡

Let’s put it to a vote now

Get Manchin, Sinema & the GOP on the record

In 2019 Sen Wyden introduced the PAVE Act which would require hand-marked paper & audits of election results.

At the time Sen Blackburn opposed it -but you know it was McConnell😡

Let’s publicize to the GOP that WE wanted audits & the GOP blocked em. And let’s audit each state.

I want HR1 but let’s also flood the Senate with election bills. Let’s not put all our eggs in one basket. Instead of one big move lets try lots of smaller moves

And make sure each bill gets voted on to see if Manchin, Sinema & the GOP will go on record voting against each of ‘em

In 2019 Sen Cardin introduced a bill prohibiting deceptive practices, false statements & voter interference in federal elections.

Once again McConnell refused to bring it to the floor😡

It was introduced in 2019 & look at how much we needed it in 2020. But they block everything

There’s an assault on democracy going on…let’s at least enter the fight

General #MoscowMitch is leading the war😡

Other then HR1, Chuck Schumer doesn’t even appear to be in the fight

Cancel August recess & bring these bills to the floor
