Introduced Jun 18, 2025 by Sen. Amy Klobuchar
It's waiting on a committee vote to reach the full chamber. Most bills never leave this stage.
This bill establishes certain protections for election workers.
Specifically, the bill makes it a crime to intimidate, threaten, coerce, or harass an election worker with the intent to interfere with the official duties of, or retaliate against, the worker.
The bill extends (1) the prohibition on certain types of intimidation in federal elections to also prohibit intimidation for processing ballots or tabulating, canvassing, or certifying votes; and (2) the prohibition on public disclosure of restricted personal information to also prohibit the disclosure of information about election officials, poll workers, or election volunteers in connection with a federal election.
The bill also authorizes election officials to remove poll observers who are interfering with or attempting to disrupt the administration of an election.
