     is amended by inserting after the item relating to section 
     303A the following new item:

``Sec. 303B. Access to election infrastructure by foreign nationals.''.

  Mr. RODNEY DAVIS of Illinois (during the reading). Mr. Speaker, I ask 
unanimous consent to waive the reading of the motion to recommit.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Illinois?
  There was no objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to the rule, the gentleman from 
Illinois is recognized for 5 minutes in support of his motion.
  Mr. RODNEY DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of the 
motion to recommit.
  For months, we have heard about the interference in our elections and 
the report of Special Counsel Robert Mueller, this report right here. 
But nothing in this bill that we are debating today and voting on today 
before this body now addresses the concerns that have been raised in 
this report.
  Mr. Speaker, nothing in the bill we are debating today addresses the 
concerns of foreign interference raised in the special counsel's report 
that I am holding right now. What we know is that Russia attempted to 
interfere in our 2016 election through a misinformation campaign, email 
hacking, and by exploring vulnerabilities of registration databases. 
This is gravely concerning to every Republican and Democrat in this 
institution.
  But what does the Federal Government telling States that they must 
replace their safe, new, and auditable machines have to do with 
addressing these concerns? What does a hand recount mandate have to do 
with these concerns? What does recycled paper have to do with these 
concerns?
  The tremendous costs associated with these Federal mandates only 
serve to draw resources away from the real vulnerabilities our States 
face.
  My colleagues on the other side of the aisle have also represented 
that Republicans have done nothing to address foreign interference in 
our elections, and that, Mr. Speaker, is simply not true.

[[Page H5244]]

  In 2017, this country's election infrastructure was designated as 
critical infrastructure, thereby allowing the Department of Homeland 
Security to immediately begin offering voluntary assistance to State 
and local election officials in the form of cybersecurity advisers, 
assessments, threat detection and prevention tools, information 
sharing, and incident response.
  Additionally, the 115th Congress, last Congress, a Republican-
controlled Congress, appropriated $380 million to States prior to the 
2018 midterms to bolster election security and $26 million to DHS to 
add additional staff and carry out their assessment efforts, allowing 
for unprecedented cooperation between DHS and all 50 States and 1,400 
localities in 2018.
  Earlier this year, $33 million was appropriated to DHS to continue 
these assistance efforts, and earlier this week, the Republicans, my 
fellow Republicans, Mr. Walker and Mr. Loudermilk, on the House 
Administration Committee, introduced our own Election Security 
Assistance Act.
  So don't tell me we are not taking this seriously.
  While so much of the focus has been on foreign interference today, we 
must not forget that we had a Member not seated this Congress following 
evidence that political operatives illegally harvested unsealed and 
only partially filled-out ballots. This practice is legal in many 
States, but as we have seen, it is ripe for fraud and abuse.
  Republicans have offered multiple amendments to prohibit this 
practice in H.R. 1 and, now, the SAFE Act, each failing on a party-line 
vote. If we can't agree that this fraudulent practice should be banned, 
let us at least agree that foreign nationals should not be harvesting 
the ballots of American citizens.
  Right now, a Russian operative could walk freely around States like 
California, for example, collecting and turning in absentee ballots, 
completely altering the outcome of an election. But my colleagues have 
shown no interest in addressing this huge vulnerability simply because 
it serves their interest only in certain States.
  This practice invites a constitutional crisis. America, Mr. Speaker, 
is watching this vote right now. My amendment today would require the 
chief election official of each State to disclose to the Election 
Assistance Commission the identity of any known foreign national who 
has physically handled ballots, machines, or has had unmonitored access 
to the storage facilities or tabulation centers used to support 
elections, or even unmonitored access to election-related information 
or communication technology. This takes an additional step in rooting 
out foreign interference and lets the process of legislating about 
election security finally begin.
  I urge my colleagues to vote for this motion to recommit. Vote to 
protect our elections from interference from foreign countries like 
Russia, China, and all others. Vote to preserve the integrity of our 
ballot, and vote to restore the American people's trust in our 
institutions.
  Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
  Ms. LOFGREN. Mr. Speaker, I withdraw my point of order.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The reservation of a point of order is 
withdrawn.
  Ms. LOFGREN. Mr. Speaker, I claim the time in opposition to the 
motion to recommit.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentlewoman from California is 
recognized for 5 minutes.
  Ms. LOFGREN. Mr. Speaker, I want to make an important observation. 
The gentleman has said that what happened in North Carolina is 
perfectly legal in other States. Fraud is not legal in any of the 50 
States.
  I would like to note that, in our bill, we do have provisions that 
vendors must be owned and controlled by citizens or permanent residents 
of the United States and certain other provisions relative to security; 
but to conflate the allowance in some States--of 27 States and 9 others 
that designate allowing your mother or your brother or your neighbor to 
take your ballot with fraud is really pretty low.
  Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from California (Mr. Aguilar).
  Mr. AGUILAR. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentlewoman for yielding.

  In our democracy, we should actively be seeking ways to involve more 
people rather than shutting them out of the process. Some States have 
done this by making voting accessible for homebound voters and others 
who have trouble physically getting to the polls and allowing an 
absentee voter to designate anyone of their choosing to drop off a 
marked ballot. This policy allows for greater participation in 
elections because some homebound voters have no family or individuals 
to delegate that role to. They should not be disenfranchised by our 
laws.
  Ballot drop-off laws are, in and of themselves, perfectly appropriate 
election administration laws. If your aunt or uncle is a physician of 
an H1B visa holder, if you are working a double shift and you hand your 
ballot to someone who is a Dreamer, if you are married to an individual 
with TPS status, this would require you to report that individual to 
the Federal Government.
  The House Administration Committee is already reviewing the foreign 
influence on American elections as the chairwoman mentioned, and we 
welcome the minority working with us in this regard. We know, from a 
Washington Post story published earlier this year, in which Members 
here in this Chamber are quoted as developing a strategy to engage in 
that practice themselves.
  In fact, our colleagues on the other side of the aisle were quoted as 
being laser focused on ballot collection in the 2020 elections. So they 
will have to forgive me if I don't buy into the argument they are 
making today that their favorite examples of potential problems with 
the system are actions of a political operative on behalf of a 
Republican candidate who illegally changed and threw away ballots.
  This is a suppression tactic. It is the height of hypocrisy that our 
Republican colleagues would be creating a new Federal standard after 
this entire debate they had been railing against the same. They will 
forgive us if we feel that that is a little disingenuous.
  Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to defeat this motion.
  Ms. LOFGREN. Mr. Speaker, I would close by urging every Member to 
vote against this motion to recommit and further note that the House 
Administration Committee will soon be examining foreign influence on 
our elections. We would welcome the participation of the minority in 
that important work.
  Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the previous question is 
ordered on the motion to recommit.
  There was no objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion to recommit.
  The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that 
the noes appeared to have it.


                             Recorded Vote

  Mr. RODNEY DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, I demand a recorded vote.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 9 of rule XX, the Chair
