Friend --
Our country's founders so strongly believed that a well-funded post office is
essential to our democracy that they gave Congress the power to establish "post
offices and post roads" in the Constitution (Article I, Section 8, Clause 7).
They were right.
It's never been more clear how the United States Postal Service binds us
together as one nation. It's crucial that we include provisions to support the
postal service and its essential workers as we rebuild our economy and make
plans for vote-by-mail in the months to come.
Sign your name here to tell the White House and Mitch McConnell to include
funding for the postal service in the next stimulus package.

Our postal workers are among the front-line workers getting us through this
crisis.
In rural states like Vermont, many seniors and people with disabilities rely on
the USPS to get medications and essential goods delivered to their homes. Small
business operators around the country rely on the USPS to keep them connected to
both their suppliers and their customers. And as states create vote-by-mail
policies for elections this summer and fall, voters and state election boards
will rely on the USPS to protect our democracy and make our elections safe and
secure.
We need our postal service, and we need to keep it reliable and affordable for
Americans across the country.
Because it's Congress' constitutional right to establish the postal service,
it's also our duty to protect and strengthen it.
Our postal service is too important to risk losing at any time, let alone during a crisis.
Please add your name to demand that the White House and Senator McConnell provide
emergency funding for the postal service.
