Colorado Secretary of State Wayne Williams has joined his peers across the country in expressing disappointment with the Department of Homeland Security's decision to classify election systems as "critical infrastructure" without the promised collaboration process.
One concern is that the classification may give the federal government more control over elections, which are run by states and local governments. The designation was made last Friday in the waning days of President Obama's administration.
A staff member from Congressman Ken Buck's office will be in Eads Thursday, January 26, from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. in the Kiowa County Courthouse meeting room at 1305 Goff Street, Eads.
The local office visit offers constituents across the Fourth Congressional District an opportunity to share their concerns with Congressman Buck's office and to receive assistance from staff members who specialize in helping constituents navigate federal programs and bureaucratic red tape. Constituents seeking assistance are encouraged to bring any relevant documentation.
