Strengthening Election Security: Banning Foreign Money and Protecting Donor Privacy.

This law aims to enhance the security of American elections by strictly prohibiting foreign funds from being used in key electoral activities like voter registration and ballot collection. It also introduces severe penalties for federal employees who unlawfully disclose the identities of individuals donating to tax-exempt organizations, thereby protecting donor privacy. Citizens benefit from increased election integrity and stronger personal data protection when supporting non-profit groups.
Key points
Total ban on the use of foreign money for specific election activities, including voter registration, ballot collection, and election administration.
Requires political committees and parties to certify, under penalty of perjury, that their funds comply with the foreign money ban.
Protects the privacy of non-profit donors: Federal agencies are generally prohibited from collecting or publicly releasing the identification of donors to tax-exempt organizations.
