Trump Admin Threatens To Pull Critical Federal Funds Unless States Adopt Election Integrity Measures
The Trump administration is threatening to withhold federal funds from states that do not adopt election integrity measures, including replacing electronic voting systems with hand-marked paper ballots. The administration is seeking to prevent election fraud at the state level by requiring states to run voter rolls through the Department of Homeland Security citizenship verification database. The move comes as efforts to federalize election integrity efforts have stalled in the Senate, with Republicans failing to make progress on the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements America Act.
