Trump’s latest executive order attack on vote by mail is rippling through the Postal Service right now – but there’s still time to stop it. The Postal Service’s proposed rule would basically create an illegal mail in ballot-access checkpoint to block anyone not on a voting age citizens list from the Department of Homeland Security. We absolutely will not trust the same agency responsible for ICE violence terrorizing communities and neighborhoods across the country, arresting and deporting U.S. citizens, and even killing at least two citizens in the streets of Minneapolis, to have any role what-so-ever in determining who gets to vote. And neither should the post office, whose core mission is public service. The USPS universal mandate requires the delivery of mail to every address in America, regardless of party, race, income, geography, disability, age, or citizenship status.
We have helped fight off Trump’s privatization plans, Louis DeJoy’s 2020 sabotage, and raised hell against postal slowdowns, service cuts, and corporate attacks on the public Postal Service. Again and again, we have helped turn public outrage into pressure decision-makers could not ignore. Now the threat is to mail in ballot access for millions of voters. We cannot let Trump illegally turn the post office into an election administrator to carry out his agenda under the false flag of election security. Voting by mail is safe, secure, and convenient. Mail in voting is how millions of people participate: seniors who cannot drive, voters with disabilities who need more accessible options, rural and tribal communities miles from their polling places, military families, students, caregivers, and workers whose shifts do not bend around Election Day. The mail helps make voting possible for millions of people. Trump wants to make that access harder, more complicated, so fewer people vote. We want USPS to do what it was built to do: serve every address, deliver every ballot, and protect universal service without political interference.
