John,

After bowing to overwhelming pressure from Democrats in Congress and
progressives across the country, Donald Trump’s Postmaster General, Louis
DeJoy testified before the Senate today.

In his testimony, DeJoy refused to reinstall the over 600 mail-sorting
machines that were removed from USPS facilities across the country.

According to Mother Jones, a significant number of these machines were
removed from critical swing states, including, “59 in Florida, 58 in
Texas, 34 in Ohio, 30 in Pennsylvania, 26 in Michigan, 15 in North
Carolina, 12 in Virginia, 12 in Wisconsin, and 11 in Georgia.”

reinstall all removed sorting machines and street side mailboxes, while
also ensuring the full funding needed to deliver mail on time. Add your

President Trump has outright said he opposes additional funding for the
Post Office because without it, “you can’t have universal mail-in voting.”

And now, his Postmaster General is working to slow down delivery times by
removing the mail-sorting machines and slashing overtime for postal
workers.

Millions of Americans depend on a functioning Postal Service to receive
their prescriptions, bills, and ballots on time.

Trump wants to dismantle it in order to keep his grip on power. We can’t
let that happen.

pass legislation requiring the USPS to reinstall all the removed machines
and mailboxes and provide the funding it needs to deliver mail on time >>

Thanks to pressure from DFA members like you and millions of people across
the country, even Republicans in the Senate are taking this threat
seriously and called DeJoy to testify today. Now, we need both the House
and Senate to act to save the USPS and our election immediately.

We must keep up the pressure to force them to act. Thank you for not
backing down until we win.
