SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Purpose: In accordance with the Government in the Sunshine Act 
(Sunshine Act), Public Law 94-409, as amended (5 U.S.C. 552b), the U.S. 
Election Assistance Commission (EAC) will conduct a virtual panel 
discussion with election officials who have dealt with threats and 
representatives from state and federal partners who offer resources to 
respond and prevent threats facing election officials, staff, and poll 
workers as they administer elections.
    Agenda: The U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) will hold a 
panel discussion with several current and former election officials who 
received threats related to the 2020 election and learn more about how 
they responded, how they are preparing for the upcoming midterm 
election year, and what resources they need to keep their staff and 
offices safe. The second panel for this event will consist of state and 
federal partners of the election official community, including 
representation from law enforcement agencies. This panel will discuss 
their efforts to provide additional security resources for election 
officials, best practices for evidence gathering and responding to 
threatening messages, and legal consideration for any election official 
who may face this sort of harassment in the future.
    The full agenda will be posted in advance on the EAC website: 
https://www.eac.gov.
    Status: This roundtable discussion will be open to the public.

Kevin Rayburn,
General Counsel, U.S. Election Assistance Commission.
