“We are pleased to see a bipartisan group of House members move forward with legislation that aims to strengthen the Electoral Count Act and reaffirm our principles regarding our elections system.  

“We must not allow a repeat of what took place on January 6, 2021. It is now time for Congress to take meaningful action to protect and strengthen our nation and ensure we never see such an attack again.
