NEW REPORT: CAP’s science-based approach to improving food safety and health
Last week, CAP released a sweeping new agenda to protect American families from harmful chemicals, protect public health decisions from efforts to politicize them and prioritize corporate interests, and make healthy food more affordable and accessible.
CAP’s new national polling finds that most Americans across the political spectrum are concerned about the safety of the food they eat and harmful chemicals in everyday products. Yet, despite campaign promises, the Trump administration has repeatedly failed to deliver meaningful action on harmful chemicals and pesticides, often siding instead with corporate interests.
What to expect when you’re expecting election denial
With the 2026 midterm elections underway, the Trump administration is laying the groundwork to challenge results that threaten its political power. Years of false election claims could be used to undermine voter confidence, intimidate election officials, and subvert the will of the American people.
Are U.S. elections actually vulnerable to widespread fraud?
Despite repeated claims by President Donald Trump and his allies, evidence shows that U.S. elections are secure. State and local officials use extensive safeguards to protect voting systems and mail ballots, while documented cases of voter fraud remain exceedingly rare. The administration’s persistent claims of widespread fraud have no factual basis.
How is the administration turning these false claims into action?
The Trump administration has used unsubstantiated allegations to justify executive orders targeting voter registration and mail voting, yet courts have repeatedly blocked these efforts. Its attempts to identify alleged noncitizen voters have produced flawed results, risking the disenfranchisement of eligible American citizens.
How could these tactics threaten the midterm results?
By amplifying baseless allegations and launching questionable legal challenges, the administration could manufacture doubt about election outcomes and pressure officials responsible for certifying results. Protecting democracy requires vigilance to ensure that election results reflect the will of voters, not a president’s unwillingness to accept defeat.
Join CAP and Jacob Weisberg for a conversation on his new book, Profiles in Cowardice
In Profiles in Cowardice, Jacob Weisberg has written one of the defining books of the Trump era, exploring how this extreme political moment happened, why so few resisted, and what it reveals about the character of American leadership. Focusing on the first Trump presidency, Weisberg follows eight individuals at the center of power in the United States, from corporate America to the U.S. Senate.
Please join CAP for an event featuring opening remarks by CAP President and CEO Neera Tanden and a conversation between Rep. Jim Himes (D–CT) and author Jacob Weisberg.
There will be free signed copies of Profiles in Cowardice available following the event for those attending in person only, while supplies last. For the online audience, you can purchase the book here.
