SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Purpose: In accordance with the Government in the Sunshine Act
(Sunshine Act), Public Law 94-409, as amended (5 U.S.C. 552b), the U.S.
Election Assistance Commission (EAC) will conduct a virtual panel
discussion with election officials who have dealt with threats and
representatives from state and federal partners who offer resources to
respond and prevent threats facing election officials, staff, and poll
workers as they administer elections.
Agenda: The U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) will hold a
panel discussion with several current and former election officials who
received threats related to the 2020 election and learn more about how
they responded, how they are preparing for the upcoming midterm
election year, and what resources they need to keep their staff and
offices safe. The second panel for this event will consist of state and
federal partners of the election official community, including
representation from law enforcement agencies. This panel will discuss
their efforts to provide additional security resources for election
officials, best practices for evidence gathering and responding to
threatening messages, and legal consideration for any election official
who may face this sort of harassment in the future.
The full agenda will be posted in advance on the EAC website:

Status: This roundtable discussion will be open to the public.
Kevin Rayburn,
General Counsel, U.S. Election Assistance Commission.
