Congress Must Investigate FBI’s Georgia Election Center Raid

Federal agents just crossed a dangerous line.

On January 28, 2026, the FBI raided Fulton County’s central election office in Georgia, executing a federal search warrant related to the 2020 presidential election and seizing ballots, voter rolls, tabulator tapes, and election data. 

This raid threatens to further undermine public trust at a moment when democracy is already under attack. That is why the House and Senate Judiciary Committees must act immediately.

Congress has a constitutional duty to oversee federal law enforcement and prevent its misuse for political ends. This raid raises urgent questions about who authorized it, why it happened now, and whether partisan pressure influenced the FBI’s actions. The Judiciary Committees must not allow federal power to be used to relitigate a settled election or intimidate local election officials tasked with administering future votes.

Tell the House and Senate Judiciary Committees: Investigate the FBI’s January 28 raid of the Fulton County, Georgia election center.

For years, Donald Trump and his allies have pushed lies about the 2020 election to justify voter suppression, harassment of election workers, and federal overreach. This raid fits into that dangerous pattern. When armed federal agents enter a local election office over debunked claims, it sends a chilling message to every election worker in America: do your job, and you could be next.

Unchecked, this sets a terrifying precedent. If federal law enforcement can be deployed against local election infrastructure without full transparency and accountability, public confidence in elections will erode even further. Democracy cannot survive when the institutions meant to protect it are used to sow fear and doubt.

The House and Senate Judiciary Committees must launch a full investigation, hold public hearings, and subpoena FBI Director Kash Patel to testify under oath. Congress must expose who ordered this raid, what political influence was involved, and how seized election materials are being handled.

Add your name now to demand that Congress investigate the FBI’s raid on Georgia’s election center, hold hearings, subpoena Kash Patel, and defend the integrity of our elections before lasting damage is done.
