SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Purpose: In accordance with the Government in the Sunshine Act 
(Sunshine Act), Public Law 94-409, as amended (5 U.S.C. 552b), the U.S. 
Election Assistance Commission (EAC) will conduct a virtual annual 
meeting of the EAC Standards Board to conduct regular business, discuss 
EAC updates and upcoming programs, and discuss the Voluntary Voting 
System Guidelines (VVSG) 2.0 and electronic poll book pilot program 
next steps and supply chain considerations.
    Agenda: The U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) Standards 
Board will hold their 2022 Annual Meeting primarily to discuss next 
steps regarding the VVSG 2.0 Requirements and implementation, the 
status of the EAC's e-poll book pilot program, and supply chain issues 
affecting the 2022 midterm elections. This meeting will include a 
question-and-answer discussion between board members and EAC staff.
    Board members will also review FACA Board membership guidelines and 
policies with EAC Acting General Counsel and receive a general update 
about the EAC programming. The Board will also elect two new members to 
the Executive Board Committee.
    Background: On February 10, 2021, the U.S. Election Assistance 
Commission (EAC) announced the adoption of the Voluntary Voting System 
Guidelines (VVSG) 2.0; the VVSG 2.0 is the fifth iteration of national 
level voting system standards. The Federal Election Commission 
published the first two sets of federal standards in 1990 and 2002. The 
EAC then adopted Version 1.0 of the VVSG on December 13, 2005. In an 
effort to update and improve version 1.0 of the VVSG, on March 31, 
2015, the EAC commissioners unanimously approved VVSG 1.1.
    The full agenda will be posted in advance on the EAC website: 
https://www.eac.gov.
    Status: This meeting will be open to the public.

Amanda Joiner,
Associate Counsel, U.S. Election Assistance Commission.
