Friends --

You've likely been hearing a lot about how the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) is in trouble. This isn't a scare tactic; I want to quickly make the case for Congressional action to protect USPS before I ask you to sign a petition.

I know there's a little bit of a disconnect here -- I'm the digital director for Mark Warner's re-election campaign, and I'm asking you to support snail mail. I might spend most of my time online, but I still rely on the Postal Service.

The Postal Service isn't something we can afford to lose, even in the digital age. It processes 182 million pieces of first-class mail every day. A lot of those pieces of mail are medication, bills, bill payments, and other critically important documents.

We depend on the Postal Service, even if we don't think about it every day. During this time of unprecedented physical distancing, the postal system is providing a vital service to thousands of Americans who want to stay in touch with loved ones. And come November, many more Americans may want to use this system to safely cast their ballots by mail.

Saving the Postal Service does more than keep us connected -- it keeps people employed. The U.S. Postal Service employs 600,000 folks across the country, and now their employment hangs in the balance. These hardworking people could lose their jobs unless Congress acts quickly to help the Postal Service.

Now that you've heard the case, will you consider signing our petition to protect USPS?

Thank you for hearing me out, and for your continued support.
