Government Issues GOV
Support democracy reforms, including public matching funds systems for congressional and presidential campaigns, automatic voter registration, redistricting reforms, and strengthened campaign finance laws and enforcement. Support the Freedom To Vote Act (S. 1 / H.R. 11), which would: provide voting rights protections; establish automatic voter registration; curb partisan gerrymandering; provide protections for state and local election workers; help eliminate the influence of dark money in elections; and provide incentives for small donations to federal candidates. Support the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act (S. 4 / H.R. 14) which would restore, strengthen, and modernize the voting rights protections included in the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Support the Government By The People Act which would create a small-donor public financing program for House candidates. Oppose the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act (S. 4292 / H.R. 8281), unnecessary legislation to require individuals to provide documentary proof of U.S. citizenship in order to register to vote in federal elections and which would make voter registration and voting more difficult, particularly for voters of color. Support Protect Elections From Deceptive AI Act (S. 2770), AI Transparency in Elections Act of 2024 (S. 3875), and Preparing Election Administrators for AI Act (S. 3897), legislation aimed to protect federal elections from the growing threat of deceptive AI-generated content (deepfakes), as well as misinformation in elections. Oppose the Equal Representation Act (S. 3659 / H.R. 7109) which would require the U.S. Census Bureau to exclude noncitizens from the congressional apportionment calculation after each census - an action that would violate the 14th Amendment. Support the Washington, D.C. Admission Act, to make Washington, D.C. a state (S. 51 / H.R. 51).
