Sherrill Votes for H.R. 1, Improving the Machinery of Our Democracy

Washington, DC — Congresswoman Mikie Sherrill released the following statement after the passage of H.R. 1, a landmark bill to improve election security, access to the ballot box, strengthen ethics rules, and improve campaign finance disclosures.

“This landmark bill will help strengthen our democracy. It addresses so many of the issues my community sent me to Washington to tackle, from access to the ballot box, to improving the very machinery of our democracy. New Jersey consistently receives low marks from national election-security experts on our election infrastructure, and this bill gives our state access to grant money to improve and maintain those systems.”
