Trump Cuts Election Security Funds, Officials Warn of Increased Risk

What Happened: Trump halted federal election security funding and paused Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency programs, leaving state and local officials scrambling to fill the gap. Programs that once monitored cyber threats and secured voting systems are now in limbo pending a Department of Homeland Security review.

Why It Matters: Trump’s cuts leave the 2026 elections wide open to hacking and foreign interference. Critical cybersecurity programs have been defunded, threat-sharing has collapsed, and state officials are now flying blind without federal support.
