    Block Trump's attempt to ban mail voting!

    Petition to Congress:
    We urge you to protect mail voting with measures including the Absentee and Mail Voter Protection Act. We urge you to reject all versions of the SAVE America Act, the SAVE Act, and all other voter suppression measures, including the latest executive order restricting mail voting. These policies are a threat to our voting rights and our democracy.

    Trump was angry that Virginia voters approved a new redistricting plan that he didn't like, so he called the election "RIGGED" due to mail voting.1

    Just weeks ago, Trump signed an executive order that severely restricts mail voting and requires DHS to compile a list of "verified U.S. citizens" who can vote.2 The order could disenfranchise millions and put countless people in danger.

    Trump's persistent attacks on mail voting, his vile election propaganda, and the GOP's attempts to pass voter suppression measures are a danger to free and fair democratic elections this fall. Congress must stop Trump's moves to steal the midterms.

    Sign the petition: Block Trump's all-out attacks on democratic elections.

    Trump has already installed election deniers in key administration positions.3 And the DOJ says it plans to arrest officials who the Trump administration falsely claims rigged the 2020 presidential election.4

    Trump is scrambling to keep his anti-immigrant, far-right election conspiracies alive as justification to stamp out democracy in America.

    To preserve mail voting, Sen. Tim Kaine and other Democrats introduced the Absentee and Mail Voter Protection Act — an urgent measure that Congress must pass to help save our elections.5

    Trump allies, on the other hand, continue to attack mail voting AND push the SAVE Act, a bill that would require specific forms of government-issued photo ID to vote in federal elections and proof of citizenship in order to register to vote. The bill would potentially disenfranchise millions of voters as November approaches.6

    Congress must stop every effort Trump and the GOP make to steal the midterms.

    Sign the petition: Reject Trump's moves to ban mail voting and pass voter suppression policies like the SAVE Act.
