Statement On Recent Election Inquiries

The 2020 election was the most secure in history. Its legitimacy has been confirmed by both Democratic and Republican judges alike. More than 9 months after Pennsylvania certified the 2020 election results, we are witnessing renewed attempts by lawmakers to launch a partisan probe into the results.

State Senate President Pro-Tempore Jake Corman took charge of his chamber’s election review last week. Instead of shutting down an inefficient and expensive effort to re-visit and “investigate” the election results, the chamber is full steam ahead on reviewing the 2020 election. As part of the controversial inquiry, the chamber is pushing to issue subpoenas for a wide range of personal information on every voter in the Commonwealth.

Pennsylvania currently has $7.5 billion in federal funds to help at-risk citizens recover from the pandemic. However, this costly election review has pulled time and attention from issues that matter to Pennsylvanians.

When it comes to voting, our legislature should be making sure that every qualified elector (the official term!) can cast a ballot in a safe and convenient way.

Please sign this petition to urge Senator Corman and the PA Senate leadership to stop spending time on this partisan election review today.
