assault on democracy.

Friend, after Republicans on the U.S. Supreme Court forced
Wisconsin voters to risk their lives standing in long voting lines
Tuesday, people across the country are seeing flashing red warning lights
for November.

In a New York Times op-ed yesterday, Elizabeth Warren wrote, "If Americans
are forced to choose either voting this November or staying safe from the
virus, then our democracy will be lost." Then, Warren announced her new
plan to protect elections from the coronavirus and Republican voter
suppression strategies.

As Congress debates what to include in the next major coronavirus relief
bill, Warren's plan should be there. There should be strings requiring
states to remove as many steps from the voting process as possible -- and
mail-in ballots should be automatically sent to all voters at their home s
like they do in Washington and Colorado.

[ [link removed] ]Join the thousands who've already signed the petition to Dems in
Congress: Make Elizabeth Warren's election protection and national vote by
mail central to the next coronavirus relief bill now being debated in
Congress.

Warren says Congress should go further than the obvious step of protecting
public health by allowing Americans to vote from home "by requiring all
states to mail every registered voter a ballot with pre-paid postage and a
self-sealing envelope, and mandating that they waive absentee ballot
requirements that undermine social distancing guidelines, such as
requirements that absentee voters submit copies of their IDs or include a
notary or witness signature with their mail-in ballot."

Elizabeth Warren's plan fully recognizes both the new challenges of the
coronavirus and the existing barriers that have been used to block
millions of Americans from voting.

Warren's election protection plan includes:

* Nationwide vote by mail
* 30 days early vote
* No voter roll purges
* End ID requirements
* $4 billion to states for the transition
* Additional funds to USPS
* Hazard pay for poll workers

We cannot allow Trump and Republican politicians to steal our elections by
forcing people to choose between voting and their own safety or the safety
of their families and communities. Democrats in Congress should put
forward a real plan to protect every person's right to vote, so that no
one is forced to make this choice. And they should put that plan in the
upcoming coronavirus relief bill.

[ [link removed] ]SIGN THE PETITION TO DEMS IN CONGRESS: Make Elizabeth Warren's election
protection plan central to the next coronavirus relief bill currently
being outlined in Congress -- including prioritizing national vote by
mail.

Democrats in Congress must hear that this is a top priority for the
American people. The more people who sign the petition, the more that both
Congress and the media will have to pay attention. [ [link removed] ]Please sign. Then
