Summary of Bill S 3588

Bill 118 s 3588, also known as the Constitutional Election Integrity Act, is a piece of legislation currently being considered by the US Congress. The main goal of this bill is to ensure the integrity of elections in the United States by implementing various measures to prevent fraud and ensure that every vote is counted accurately.

Some key provisions of the Constitutional Election Integrity Act include requiring voters to provide identification at the polls, implementing stricter guidelines for absentee voting, and increasing penalties for individuals found guilty of election fraud. The bill also aims to improve the security of voting machines and ensure that all ballots are properly counted and verified.

They believe that implementing these safeguards will increase voter confidence in the electoral system and help to prevent any potential instances of fraud.
