Hi, John!

What happened in Wisconsin last week was a total mess: the Republican state legislatures and conservative courts forced voters to cast their ballots in person in the middle of a deadly pandemic, refusing to move the primary election or even the postmark date for mail-in ballots.

We can’t let that happen in any other states, not with so much on the line in the November general election.

That’s why it’s absolutely critical that the federal government pass election protections in the next coronavirus bill. Voto Latino has endorsed the use of early vote and vote-by-mail as two ways to encourage and facilitate an increase in Latinx voter participation, but there’s some additional things we need to ensure voting is easy, safe, and accessible for all:

*
Send
mail-in
ballots
to
all
registered
voters,
including
prepaid
postage,
tracking,
and
acceptance
of
all
ballots
at
voting
centers,
polling
places,
ballot
drop-off
boxes,
or
ballots
postmarked
by
November
3.
Allow
sealed
ballots
to
be
collected
and
delivered
by
third
parties
like
community
organizations.
*
Increase
ease
of
voter
registration
by
expanding
online
registration
options,
offering
same-day
voter
registration,
and
including
automatic
voter
registration
in
official
interactions
with
state
governments,
with
an
opt-out
option
available.

If you agree that Congress must take action to ensure every voter can cast their ballot in the easiest and safest way possible in 2020, add your name to our petition now >> [[link removed]]

No one should have to risk their health, spend hours waiting in line, or be left behind on Election Day. It’s on our leaders to make sure our democratic elections continue to be free and fair.

Stay informed, mis compañeros,
