*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 Board of Advisors to discuss EAC updates and upcoming programs, and discuss the implementation of the Voluntary Voting System Guidelines (VVSG) 2.0 and electronic poll book pilot program next steps, as well as threats against election officials.                

*Agenda:*                     The U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) Board of Advisors will hold their 2022 Annual Meeting primarily to discuss next steps regarding the VVSG 2.0 and implementation, the status of the EAC's e-poll book pilot program, and threats against election officials.

On April 5, 2022, the EAC adopted the VVSG Lifecycle Policy as part of the implementation process.                

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.
