Secretary of State Wes Allen met with U.S. Sens. Katie Britt (R-Montgomery) and Tommy Tuberville (R-Auburn) to discuss voter integrity during the National Association of Secretaries of State (NASS) Conference.
During a roundtable discussion, Allen presented his efforts to enhance voter file maintenance and election integrity. Former President Joe Biden has legally challenged some of those efforts.
"I was excited to share the strides towards fortifying election integrity that Alabama has made over the last two years with Senators Britt and Tuberville," Allen said. "We also had the chance to discuss important federal policy issues that impact Alabamians, such as the need to repeal the beneficial ownership reporting requirement of the Corporate Transparency Act and reforming the National Voter Registration Act."
During the discussion, a dozen other state secretaries presented their efforts to improve voter integrity.
Allen said Alabama's efforts have proven successful but he was grateful to hear other ideas.
"It is always great to gather with other Secretaries of State to discuss the issues challenging each of our individual states, while learning from each other on what produces positive results for the People of our respective states," Allen said. "Sharing ideas and working together towards a better America is a worthwhile cause, and one that I am proud to have participated in."
