Big Tech lobby ITI, @ITI_TechTweets, put out a release on Sept. 30 cheering permitting reform.
ITI flew congressional aides, including those on House Dems' AI task force, to Austin for pretty-fancy meetings with tech executives. Must have been appealing!

Election reform should not be about giving one party an advantage. It should be about giving every American confidence that our elections belong to the American people.
That is the principle behind the bipartisan Stop Foreign Funds in Elections Act, which the House passed unanimously yesterday.
This bill closes a dangerous loophole that allowed foreign nationals to finance ballot initiatives, referenda, and recall elections.
I’m grateful to @IssueOneReform for supporting this legislation and calling on the Senate to act.
American elections must be decided by American citizens alone.

The SAVE America Act would centralize dangerous voter-screening power in presidential appointees, undermining the Constitution’s design, warns Cato’s Walter Olson.
He notes the urgency: after trying to overturn a lost election once, Trump could gain new tools to challenge voter eligibility again.
