Conservation Voters of Pennsylvania Decries Anti-Voter Department of Justice Lawsuit
In response to the Justice Department lawsuit against six states, including Pennsylvania, for declining to provide the Trump Administration with voter rolls containing sensitive information, Molly Parzen, Executive Director of Conservation Voters of Pennsylvania, said:
This lawsuit from the Trump Administration is just the latest blatant attempt to intimidate voters and undermine our elections. The voter rolls requested contain sensitive, personal information for Pennsylvania voters, and handing that information over to the Trump Administration does nothing to make our elections more safe or secure.
The Trump Administration has repeatedly tried to sow doubt and create fear around our elections. This lawsuit takes their political game a step further - breaching the trust of all Pennsylvanians and putting our privacy at risk.
The first step in protecting our environment is protecting our democracy and ensuring all Pennsylvanians can participate in free, fair, and secure elections. Lawsuits like this undermine our core systems of democracy and represent a blatant abuse of power for political gain.
We look forward to supporting Pennsylvania leaders as they fight this overreach and work to protect our rights and freedoms.
