MacIver News Minute: The MEGA Act

Three cheers for Wisconsin Congressman Bryan Steil.Last week, Steil introduced the Make Elections Great Again -- or MEGA -- Act. The bill would bring straightforward and commonsense reforms to elections nationwide.Some of these reforms, like requiring photo ID and ensuring only citizens can vote, are already in effect here in Wisconsin.Others, like ranked choice voting, universal vote by mail, ballot harvesting, and improving voter list maintenance, will make elections in our state more fair.All in all, Congressman Steil's bill is a serious and important step toward election integrity.Fair and verifiable elections are the bedrock of our democracy. At the MacIver Institute, we've led the way to enact reforms to bring accountability and transparency to our elections. It is great to see one of our own leading the fight in Washington.Rest assured, this is an issue we will be tracking very closely.
