Current and Former Election Officials Testify on Trust in Federal Elections

Current and former election officials testified at a House Administration Committee hearing on public trust in federal elections. Republican members spoke in support of the Make Elections Great Again Act, which would impose new national standards and restrictions on federal elections, including requiring photo identification for voting, mandating proof of citizenship for voter registration, and changing the process for mail-in ballots. Many Democratic members opposed the bill, arguing that it would create barriers that could deny some American citizens their constitutional right to vote.
