Kelly co-sponsors elections act

U.S. Rep. Mike Kelly, R-16th, joined members of the House Election Integrity Caucus to introduce the End Zuckerbucks Act, a bill that would ban 501(c)(3) organizations from donating to official government elections administrators.

The act is being created in response to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg awarding millions in grant money to local boards of elections in 49 states through the nonprofit Center for Tech and Civic Life, according to a Thursday news release from Kelly’s office.

The purpose of the End Zuckerbucks Act is to prevent Big Tech from putting its thumb on the scales of future U.S. elections, the release says.
