Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin had originally promised to release the plan by mid-August as part of the #Trump administration’s move to kickstart #election security assistance after a hiatus. He announced the plan at the same time he threatened election officials for not cooperating with the administration’s preferred methods to hunt down noncitizen voting, a phenomenon that research shows is extremely rare.

But #CISA, as it’s known, was largely absent from that role in last year’s elections after the #Trump admin dismantled much of its role in election security. #ElectionInterference #law
