State Voting Rights Acts give voters tools to challenge unfair election systems in court and can even prohibit discriminatory voting practices from being implemented in the first place. In doing so, states can lead the way toward a more inclusive and accountable government.

The FEC allowed an illegal loophole exploited by wealthy special interests to secretly influence our vote and our government. The court now must step in to uphold the law and defend voters’ right to know who is spending big money to sway our vote.

Those in top positions of power should be chosen for their experience and ability, not just for their loyalty to a particular party or president. During the hearing, the Senate has a duty to ask Harmeet Dhillon questions about these significant concerns.

If confirmed as head of the Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division, Dhillon would be one of the primary authorities in charge of enforcing federal voting laws. However, she has been involved in numerous lawsuits seeking to restrict the freedom to vote across the country.

Dhillon has repeatedly sought to undermine the American public’s confidence in the integrity of our elections and urged the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

Our democracy cannot be for and by the people when foreign actors illegally spend money to exert influence over our elections. A swift response is necessary to send the clear message that our elections are protected from foreign influence.

By dropping the federal criminal case against Mayor Adams, the Department of Justice has abandoned its duty to pursue justice and accountability. The FEC is in a unique position to step up and fulfill its responsibility to safeguard our elections from foreign influence.

In the latest sign of trouble at the DOJ, six senior Justice Department officials resigned rather than compromise their integrity after being told to drop corruption charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams. Politicians should be held accountable when they fail to serve the people. 2/2
