You know who's voting by mail this election? Donald Trump. You know who's making it harder for everyone else in the country to vote by mail in the middle of a global pandemic? Yeah, you guessed it -- Donald Trump.

If you’re as outraged as I am, then I suggest you pick up the phone and make a call to your senators. Tell them that they need to vote for $4 billion in funding in the next COVID-19 relief bill to expand voting options for EVERYONE.

On Monday night, I was part of a virtual town hall alongside democracy powerhouses like Senators Elizabeth Warren, Amy Klobuchar, and Ron Wyden, and they all agreed: it's more important than ever that we protect our right to vote. (If you couldn’t make it, you can check it out here!)

To do that, we need to raise our voices and call upon our elected officials to make sure they fund election reforms that will ensure safer voting options in the next COVID-19 relief bill. 

This funding would go towards every state expanding vote-by-mail and instituting other reforms like online voter registration, no-excuse absentee voting, early voting, and safety measures for poll workers. 

The Stand Up America community has made over 115,000 calls to Congress to demand election assistance for states. Add your voice by making a call to ensure that every eligible American can vote safely and securely this November.

No one should have to choose between protecting their health and their right to vote. Thanks for all you do to make that a reality.
