Summary
The Democracy Without Intimidation Act removes the legal exception that allows armed forces at the polls, making any military presence illegal. It directs federal prosecutors and magistrate judges to pursue violations more aggressively and gives voters a private right to sue senior law‑enforcement officials who breach the rule. The bill aims to protect the integrity of elections by eliminating the threat of intimidation.
