I am committed to achieving even more for Idaho in the year ahead by partnering with my Senate colleagues to ... ensure election integrity
Evidence
U.S. Senators Jim Risch (R-Idaho), Mike Crapo (R-Idaho), and Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.) introduced the Equal Representation Act to ensure that only legal citizens are counted in determining Congressional districts and Electoral College maps.
Senator Jim Risch introduced the 287(g) Program Protection Act to streamline and strengthen partnerships between local law enforcement and federal immigration authorities.
Assessments
Senator Risch made legislative efforts intended to bolster election integrity, notably by co-introducing bills to exclude non-citizens from apportionment counts and enhance law enforcement partnerships. However, the evidence only demonstrates attempts to address components related to election integrity rather than fully ensuring it or enacting sweeping reforms. No evidence indicates the passage or full implementation of these proposed measures.
