Protecting Election Workers and Voters from Intimidation, Especially with Firearms.
This law strengthens protections for election workers and voters by explicitly prohibiting intimidation, threats, or coercion against those administering federal elections. A key provision establishes that visibly carrying a firearm or imitation firearm while interacting with voters or election officials is presumed to be an act of intimidation, unless proven otherwise.
