Democracy Docket: With New Order, Trump Tries to Kill Off Vote By Mail [[link removed]]
We're going to keep hammering this home, John, because the mainstream media continues to ignore this executive order and how it will change our elections forever.
President Donald Trump's massive anti-voting executive order has sent lawmakers, election officials, and voting rights advocates into a frenzy. One provision focuses on a goal that for years has been a borderline obsession for MAGA: Cracking down on voting by mail.
For background: After every election in which he's been a candidate or in power, Trump has raged over the use of mail-in ballots in general and ballot deadlines in particular . He's tried to claim fraud for every single ballot counted after Election Day.
So of course, this order directs Attorney General Pam Bondi to “take all necessary action” against any states that count absentee or mail-in ballots received after Election Day.
This order makes it clear that the MAGA crew will do anything they can to codify their power permanently and silence the will of the people by suppressing and eliminating the votes we cast.
We've got to keep fighting and work to protect our elections and our fundamental right to vote. Step up with $25 or whatever you can today and help us defend vote by mail across the country >> [[link removed]]

We all know that mail-in voting laws are about ballot accessibility, making it easier for voters to participate in our elections. Elderly voters, the disabled, our military service members -- they all vote by mail.
Mail-in voting has happened dating back to the Civil War. It's always been safe and secure, mail-in voting fraud is supremely rare. States have spent millions of taxpayer dollars investigating voter fraud since 2020's "big lie" and found virtually nothing. It's been used widely in some states for decades and in most of the country since the pandemic.
Our partners at VoteAmerica said it best: “ There is no good-faith reason to limit vote-by-mail access, reject ballots without postmarks, or refuse to count ballots that arrive after Election Day. If the administration moves forward with these proposals, they will effectively disenfranchise older voters, rural voters, and military voters. ”
Opponents of voting rights have proven they'll go to any length necessary to stop people from voting and make sure that they stay in power. Will you chip in $25 or whatever you can to fight their unending desire for control and protect mail-in voting? >> [[link removed]]

Integrity First Voter Action Project is dedicated to expanding ballot access and increasing voter participation across the country.
Since the Supreme Court gutted key provisions in the Voting Rights Act, extreme politicians have taken advantage to pass harsh laws that restrict access to the ballot box. These restrictions particularly affect disadvantaged communities and people of color. It’s our goal to bring awareness to these laws wherever they may crop up and organize voters to take action to ensure the right to vote is available to everyone in their states and communities.
