Statements & Testimony

Chisun Lee, Senior Counsel at the Brennan Center for Justice at NYU Law, testified in support of small-donor public financing and automatic voter registration for New York State elections before the New York State Legislature at the Joint Legislative Budget Hearing Concerning Local Government Officials and General Government.

The bill would commit to a renewed Voting Rights Act, restore voting rights to individuals with a felony conviction in their past, combat deceptive practices that suppress the vote, revitalize the campaign finance system, and more.

As part of a bipartisan group of 27 organizations, the Brennan Center endorsed a series of recommendations for ways to strengthen House oversight of the Intelligence Community in the new Congress.
