Congressman Edwards (NC-11) introduced the No Funds for Ballot Harvesting Act, legislation aimed at strengthening election integrity and protecting free and honest elections. The bill amends the Help America Vote Act of 2002 to prohibit the use of federal election administration funds in states that permit ballot harvesting.
I will introduce legislation to prohibit the use of federal election administration funds in states that permit ballot harvesting.
Occurrences
Evidence
Official House press release says Edwards introduced the No Funds for Ballot Harvesting Act.
Assessments
The promise was specifically to introduce legislation, not to enact it. Evidence from Edwards's official House press release states that he introduced the No Funds for Ballot Harvesting Act, which directly matches the promised action of filing legislation to block federal election administration funds in states that allow ballot harvesting. Because the promised act was introduction of a bill and that occurred while he was serving in the relevant federal office term, this counts as delivered in the same term.
