DHS Requires States to Adopt Common-Sense Election Security Measures Before Receiving Federal Funds Release Date: July 10, 2026 Protecting the nation’s critical infrastructure – including election security – is a top priority for President Trump and Secretary Mullin WASHINGTON – The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS), through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), is taking decisive action to safeguard the integrity of American elections. Threats to election systems are constantly evolving. This week, FEMA published the funding opportunity for the Homeland Security Grant Program, making over $1 billion of taxpayer funds available to state, Tribal Nations, territorial, and local governments. Before receiving award funds, states and other recipients must take critical, common-sense steps to protect U.S. elections. “Election security is national security and protecting the Nation’s critical infrastructure is a top priority,” said DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin. “Under President Trump’s leadership, we are taking decisive action to protect election systems from threats like foreign interference, insider threats, and cyberattacks. These new requirements for homeland security grant recipients will preserve election integrity and ensure that Americans can trust the results.” | QR codes now required for votes to count | Votes to be checked against Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) data base | https://www.dhs.gov/news/2026/07/10/dhs-requires-states-adopt-common-sense-election-security-measures-receiving-federal #News #US #DHS #Voting #Elections #Crime #Fraud #Espionage #Conspiracy #NWO #QR #SAVE
