Election Transparency and Integrity

Problem

We must lift the veil of secrecy that surrounds the activities of groups working to influence the political process. At a time of increased misinformation and distrust it is more important than ever that the public is provided the information they need to make informed decisions on the policies that impact their lives. Full disclosure will improve the credibility of the government and enhance the public’s trust.

Solution

I introduced a bill that requires that election infrastructure vendors disclose financial ties for approval as a vendor by the Secretary of State; requires report of known or suspected security incidents involving election systems to the Division of Elections. I also introduced a second bill which makes various changes to reporting requirements for independent expenditure committees; establishes reporting requirements for policy impact committees.
