FILE - Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco testifies during a hearing, April 19, 2023, on Capitol Hill in Washington. The Justice Department is committed to sharing with social media companies information that it picks up about efforts by foreign governments to influence this year's elections, according to a speech being given by Monaco, Friday, August. 2, 2024.
“These threats are on the rise, and it’s unacceptable. No one should endure threats of violence simply for doing their job,” Monaco said, according to prepared remarks obtained by The Associated Press. “For the right to vote to be real for every American, election officials — who are often volunteers — must be able to do their jobs free from improper influence, physical threats, or any other conduct designed to intimidate.
“Our republic depends on the operation of a free and fair electoral process — with results that are respected and with elections that are free from violence and free from foreign interference,” Monaco will say. The department this week also made public for the first time a series of procedures the FBI uses for deciding when to share information with social media companies about threats to their platforms. That step was encouraged in a recent report by the Justice Department inspector general.
