Reports that the White House has dismissed the remaining members of the Election Assistance Commission โ all of whom were unanimously confirmed by the Senate, including a commissioner appointed by President Trump himself โ should concern every American, regardless of party, because the EAC was established by Congress as an independent, bipartisan body to help states administer secure and credible elections.
If these reports are accurate, removing every remaining commissioner just months before the 2026 midterm elections is an extraordinary step that demands an immediate explanation from the administration and raises profound concerns about political interference in the institutions that support our elections.
