In Congress, Rishi will fiercely protect our democracy, safeguard voting rights, protect the integrity of our elections and purge dark money from our political system. Here is his agenda to protect our democracy:
- Push for free and fair elections on all fronts.
- Ensure voting is easily accessible while ensuring deceased voters and voters who moved have been taken off the voter rolls, mitigating any attempts at voter fraud.
- Allow a Voting Day public holiday and allow for a vote-by-mail electoral process.
- Stop the dark tainted money of corporate interests from influencing elections and subverting our democracy.
- End Citizens United.
- Continue the support of efforts like Proposition 18 in 2020, to allow 17 year-olds to register to vote if they were 18 years old by the general election.
- Continue the support of the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, HR 1, the For the People Act, and the Protecting Our Democracy Act.
