A US agency has been told to stop its election security work.
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) issued a memo freezing its election security efforts to review all work and positions “related to election security and countering mis- and- disinformation” at the state and local level since 2017, reports Wired. The review is reportedly set to conclude on March 6th.
The outlet writes that the memo also confirms an earlier Politico report that CISA employees associated with the work were placed on administrative leave on February 7th.
