** Take Action!
------------------------------------------------------------
* Plasma from patients who recovered from Covid-19 is being used to help other people fight the disease. Today (5/11) New Jersey will have two plasma collecting sites opening, one in Newark, one in Fairfield. If you have completely recovered from Covid-19 and are willing to donate plasma, find out the requirements and sign up at the Red Cross site here ([link removed]) .
* The Post Office is still struggling, with Trump still trying to block aide ([link removed]) . All of us can help. The Post Office is funded entirely by profits from sales, so anything you buy from them will help them to keep going. Their deliveries are taking longer than usual, so please buy all your stamps right now ([link removed]) to get ready for all the postcards and political letters you'll be writing this summer! While you're there, check out the cute gifts they have, like tote bags ([link removed]) and cute little cars ([link removed]) .
* TurnPABlue is currently offering postcard kits for activists who want to help their mission ([link removed]) . For $8.00 you'll receive 50 pre-addressed postcards, a script, and instructions. You supply the postage and the work of writing them. This is an excellent opportunity to not only help out Pennsylvania, but to help the Post Office by ordering stamps ([link removed]) .
