Today, the PCCC and organizations representing millions of voters are
urging Congress to make voting in November safe, easy, and reliable
despite the coronavirus threat by including proposals like Senators Amy
Klobuchar's and Ron Wyden’s Natural Disaster and Emergency Ballot Act in
the next relief bill.
Like Elizabeth Warren’s plan before it -- which tens of thousands of PCCC
members also support -- the Klobuchar/Wyden plan prioritizes national
vote-by-mail and includes safeguards for voters and protection for the
integrity of the election.
While Speaker Pelosi vows that the next coronavirus relief bill will
include funding for vote-by-mail, Mitch McConnell so far says hell no. To
win this fight and protect voting rights in November, we’re going to need
massive pressure at a national and local level.
[ [link removed] ]Sign the petition to Congress: Include funding for national
vote-by-mail and a robust election protection plan such as the
Klobuchar/Wyden and Elizabeth Warren proposals in the next coronavirus
relief bill.
And, [ [link removed] ]help us air our ad pressuring McConnell to support vote-by-mail
funding. The Hill reports "The ad will be aired on MSNBC, Fox News and
CNN, as well as local outlets in Kentucky, the home state of Senate
Majority Leader Mitch McConnell." Watch and donate here.
Proposals like the Klobuchar/Wyden plan and Elizabeth Warren’s plan
prioritize national vote-by-mail while ensuring that in-person voting is
safeguarded for those who need it. They also remove barriers that have
been used to suppress voting, and protect the integrity of the election.
The Klobuchar/Wyden Natural Disaster and Emergency Ballot Act provides
funding for national vote-by-mail, gives voters increased time to register
to vote and request mail ballots, guarantees ballots postmarked by
Election Day and received within 10 days will be counted, and ensures 20
days of early in-person voting.
Warren’s plan includes nationwide vote by mail, 30 days to early vote, no
voter roll purges, an end to voter ID requirements, and includes $4
billion to states for the transition, additional funds to USPS, and hazard
pay for poll workers.
