Safeguard our Elections
U.S. Congress
We deserve to be confident that our election results are accurate and protected from sophisticated cyber attacks.
As even more evidence of Russian interference in the 2016 election emerges, policymakers and citizens across the country are turning their attention to election security. Government officials have warned that Russia will likely try to influence future elections as well, so we must do all we can now to uphold and preserve the integrity of our elections.
The most effective solutions are simple and common sense: paper ballots in every state, an audit of these ballots to confirm election results, paper back-ups of our voter registration databases, and improved cybersecurity resources for local election officials.
Protecting our democracy is not a partisan issue — when a foreign government or a foreign entity tries to influence our elections, it weakens all of our votes and voices. The American people deserve answers and real solutions to secure our elections moving forward.

Outdated voting systems across the country must be replaced. Voters should be able to mark paper ballots which they can verify and can serve as a backup, and election results must be audited to establish high confidence that the outcome is correct. Our democracy depends on it.
