Election Interference


Congress is due to vote this week on H.R. 4617, the SHIELD (Stopping Harmful Interference in Elections for a Lasting Democracy) Act. This act would amend the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 by:
​
  • Criminalizing the failure to report offers of campaign contributions from foreign governments;
  • improving transparency of online political advertisements,
  • closing loopholes that allow foreign nationals and foreign governments to spend in U.S. elections,
  • restricting the exchange of campaign information between candidates and foreign governments and their agents; and
  • prohibiting deceptive practices about voting procedures.

​Action:

​Contact your Member of Congress  (preferably by phone, as the vote may be today), and ask them to support H.R. 4617, SHIELD Act. If they are a cosponsor, thank them.
