There’s little point in looking to Congress, which this week was busy overriding an amendment by U.S. Rep. Mike Quigley, D-Ill., to restore $380 million for election security. Shamefully, the entire Illinois Republican delegation voted against the amendment.

“Now is the time to double down on our efforts to prevent election hacking. The American people are watching, and we must ensure that we — unlike our president — are on the right side of history at this pivotal moment in our democracy.”

Rep. Quigley discusses Trump's ties to Vladimir Putin and what it means for our national security and democracy.

“This report should serve as a wake-up call to the Trump Administration that it must take immediate action to address lead in drinking water.”

"I never thought these words would come out of my mouth, but I encourage Republicans to listen to Sarah Huckabee Sanders. Even she has acknowledged the common-sense fact that funding for election security grants, which allow states to update and upgrade their outdated election infrastructure, is a positive step forward in preventing foreign meddling.”

Rep. Quigley, who serves on the House Intelligence Committee and House Appropriations Committee, offered the Democratic Motion to Recommit (MTR) on his amendment to restore $380 million in election security grants for FY19.
