Government Accountability Groups Urge House to Strengthen the Office of Congressional Ethics and Make It Permanent

Today, Common Cause and other government accountability groups urged every member of the U.S. House of Representatives to strengthen the independent Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE) and make the office permanent. Even if Congress does not codify the OCE into law at this time, the groups stress the importance of maintaining the office’s continued existence and the importance of not weakening it in the 119th Congress.

USA Today/Gannett: Hawaii has a voter enthusiasm problem, could publicly funded campaigns help?

Common Cause Hawaii’s program manager, Camron Hurt, emphasized the need for more comprehensive changes to make Hawaii’s elections free from outside influence, more competitive and more popular.

“I think those (other reforms) are all tools to fix the same wheel. Right. So I think we fixed parts of the wheel, but the wheel still isn’t moving as efficiently as it can,” Hunt said.

WAER (NPR): NYS redistricting committee could release new congressional map today

Thursday's meeting will be open to the public, but Executive Director of Common Cause New York Susan Lerner says the state’s redistricting process has largely been conducted behind closed doors.

“The commission, which has held no meeting, after being charged with drawing a new congressional map, has announced that it’s going to meet on Thursday afternoon, and they’re going to vote on a map," Lerner said. "Nobody’s seen it, nobody’s made any comments about it, nobody has been able to provide feedback.”

But Gavin Geis, the executive director of Common Cause Nebraska, said the bill is unlikely to be put forward for a full vote before the state’s legislative session ends for the year on April 18.

“If the bill did make it out of committee with a priority it would have to be debated on the floor, but that would definitely lead to an extended filibuster,” Geis said in a statement. “So its odds are slim.”

WUNC: Poll workers, voters adapting to North Carolina’s photo ID requirement

Opponents of the ID law, like Common Cause North Carolina's Ann Webb, point out that while its supporters say it will boost election integrity, there is virtually no evidence of the kind of individual voter fraud it would stop.

"Ultimately, what the question is here is: What are we gaining from photo ID?" Webb rhetorically asked. "What's really critical at this point is that folks aren't disenfranchised by the uncertainty of what this new requirement means."

Colorado Politics/Colorado Springs Gazette: Colorado bill tasking attorney general to study online ‘misinformation’ sparks First Amendment debate

Andrew Barton of Colorado Common Cause, who supports the measure, said his organization has conducted an independent analysis of social media posts and that the study revealed an increasing prevalence of "misinformation" about candidates for office, election processes, and the validity of the country's voting system.

"Our democratic institutions only work when we can all engage with them accurately and honestly," Barton said. "Because of the threat of misinformation and disinformation, it's imperative that data around how such...

Yahoo! News/USA Today: باعتبارها مهد التكنولوجيا، تبدو كاليفورنيا رائدة في تنظيم الذكاء الاصطناعي

جوناثان ميهتا شتاين هو أحد مؤسسي مبادرة كاليفورنيا للتكنولوجيا والديمقراطية، وهو مشروع لمجموعة الحكم الصالح كاليفورنيا كومن كوز، التي تقدم المشورة للمشرعين بشأن التهديدات التي تشكلها التقنيات الناشئة على الديمقراطية. ويشير إلى الاستخدام المتزايد للذكاء الاصطناعي في الانتخابات في جميع أنحاء العالم كدليل على أنه لم يعد مجرد نظرية، بل ممارسة نشطة. في الشهر الأول من عام 2024، أثبتت عمليات التزييف العميق التي تروج لمعلومات مضللة في الانتخابات في بنجلاديش وسلوفاكيا أنها تسبب اضطرابات انتخابية كبيرة. هنا في الولايات المتحدة، لا يزال هناك الكثير من الناس الذين يخشون أن تكون هذه التكنولوجيات الجديدة قادرة على إحداث تغييرات كبيرة في الانتخابات.
