John,

Coronavirus will affect the general election this fall, and time is running out for states to fully and adequately prepare to keep voters safe.

Despite election officials’ calls for additional election funding, Congress isn’t acting. This must change, and it must change quickly if we want to ensure that Americans aren’t forced to choose between their health and their right to vote.

Lawmakers cannot let negotiations for the next stimulus package fall through — the November election depends on it. We know we’ve asked, but can you chip in $3 to help Issue One continue to advocate for more funding as relief talks continue?

Election officials across the country are working hard to ensure that Election Day is safe and secure for voters, but they need help — and quickly.

Officials are putting practices in place to keep voters and poll workers safe at in-person polling places, and they’re working to make options like early voting and absentee voting available to folks who choose that option. But this takes resources that are simply hard to come by in an economy that is struggling due to the pandemic.

It’s time for Congress to help the election administrators committed to maintaining the integrity of our elections and ensuring that Americans are safely able to vote.

Donate today and help us keep up the pressure on Congress while the next stimulus package is being negotiated!

Thanks for all you do,

Nick Penniman
