The Protecting Our Democracy Act is landmark democracy reform legislation that would help prevent presidential abuse of power and reinforce our Constitutional system of checks and balances. DelBene\u2019s amendment would help enhance cybersecurity across political campaigns and protect personal data collected.\n\n\u201cProtecting our democracy also means improving how political campaigns safely store and protect the information they collect,\u201d said DelBene. \u201cThese groups collect a significant amount of voter data, ranging from public to personal information. Americans should have the confidence that their data is protected from cybercriminals and foreign advisories and cannot be used to influence our elections or spread disinformation.\u201d\n\nThe amendment that DelBene secured would direct the Federal Elections Committee (FEC) to provide guidance for campaigns on cybersecurity risks and best practices in consultation with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), and other relevant agencies.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T20:37:48Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://delbene.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=3007"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.9819921106100082, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
