Established in 2022, the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) is an independent, bipartisan commission whose mission is to help election officials improve the administration of elections and help Americans participate in the voting process.

The department is committed to working collaboratively with those on the front lines of elections – state and local government, election officials, federal partners and the vendor community – to manage risks to election infrastructure. The department will remain transparent as well as agile to combat and secure our physical and cyber infrastructure against new and evolving threats.

NCSL tracks election and campaign issues in several major categories: campaign finance, election policy and administration, election results and analysis, and initiative and referendum. The organization provides comprehensive 50-state research and analysis on a wide variety of topics related to these issues. Additionally, NCSL's Redistricting and Elections Standing Committee works on issues that affect all states and hosts meetings of national interest.
