Election Worker Support: Recruitment and Safety Training
This act aims to enhance the safety and recruitment of individuals working in elections. The Election Assistance Commission will study state programs to identify best practices for recruiting and providing safety training to poll workers. This should lead to smoother elections and increased safety for those managing polling places.
Key points
The Election Assistance Commission will continuously study how states recruit and provide safety training for election workers.
Reports on these studies, including voluntary considerations for states, will be published every two years.
States will be able to use federal funds to implement these recommendations, potentially improving the number and safety of election workers.
