"Written statement by Representative Frank Lucas, Ranking Member, Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, U.S. House of Representatives."
"The integrity and security of elections is fundamental to democracy in the United States."
"Americans must have confidence in the accuracy of election results, or we risk losing the public trust in government and our political system."
"As Federal policy makers, we must remember that administration of elections is inherently a function of state and local governments."
"It's hard to imagine an issue of greater importance to our democracy than the security of America's election systems."
"I would be remiss if I didn't take the opportunity to highlight how partisan politics on the part of the House's Democrat leadership has once again failed to proceed through regular order."
"I am disappointed-but quite frankly not surprised, as this is just another in a long line of political stunts."
"We know that our adversaries are looking to erode public confidence in elections."
"I want to thank Mr. Paul Ziriax, Secretary of the Oklahoma State Election Board, for testifying today."
"What works for California might not work for Oklahoma."
"Under the leadership of Chairwoman Eddie Bernice Johnson, we have been conducting hearings and moving legislation under regular order."
"Unfortunately, the Democratic leadership of the House has chosen to ignore the Committee process."
