Summary
The STEADFAST Act replaces the public‑financing program for presidential races with a federal grant program run by the Election Assistance Commission. Eligible states can receive money to upgrade voting equipment, improve cybersecurity, protect ballot storage, and add security features to paper ballots. The bill aims to make federal elections safer by giving states resources tied to their voter‑registration size.
