Steil said the legislation is built on three pillars: protecting free speech, giving states access to tools and federal resources to shore up voter rolls, ensuring that voter ID usage is a core principle in voting.
The House Administration Committee’s bill, named the American Confidence in Elections Act, is a package of over 50 elections-related measures, including legislation to push states to adopt voter ID laws, prevent noncitizens from casting ballots and overhaul voting in the District.
“This legislation is the most substantive and conservative election integrity legislation that will come before the House in over a generation,” Mr. Steil said. Rep. Joe Morelle, the top-ranked Democrat on the committee, said the ACE Act would “appease extremist election deniers who have spent the last four years attacking our democracy.”
