Election Worker Protection Congressional Review Emergency Act of 2024

This bill amends local theft and white-collar crime laws to impose harsher penalties for violent or dangerous crimes committed against election workers, including Board members, employees, and volunteers. Under the new provisions, individuals who attack or threaten these officials while they are performing their duties could face fines and prison sentences up to 1.5 times the standard maximum for offenses like assault, kidnapping, murder, and robbery. The legislation is designed as a temporary emergency measure that will remain in effect for no longer than 90 days after approval.
