Hi John,

I just wanted to lift up Danielle’s email here. To elect Democratic women up and down the ballot, we need a fully functioning USPS.

With states across the country moving to vote-by-mail to ensure safety for citizens, we can’t let the Trump administration put the future for so many of our alums at risk.

That’s why I’m asking you to stand with me today and demand that the Postmaster general reverse the dangerous cuts he has made to the USPS immediately.

Thanks for speaking out on this!   Jill Barkley Affiliate Director, Emerge

John,

Our mission is to elect women up and down the ballot because we know that with more women leaders, real and long-lasting change will happen. These are women who will lead law enforcement agencies, sit as judges, serve as district attorneys (and so much more).

But after the recruiting, the training, and the campaigning, our alums' success fundamentally comes down to access to the ballot box.

And amidst a pandemic, so many Americans depend on the United States Postal Service to be able to safely vote. Though Postmaster General DeJoy agreed to hold off on making additional cuts to the United States Postal Service until after November, we know this isn't good enough.

Add your name to demand Postmaster DeJoy reverse his disastrous cuts to the Postal Service.

We know the training we provide alums is critical to their success — but it all comes down to turning out voters. The fight for funding the USPS is about more than access to a ballot box — it’s access to their livelihoods and their medicine as well.

That’s why our alums — leaders like Secretary of State Jena Griswold — are fighting back by suing the USPS Postmaster in a multi-state lawsuit challenging these dangerous cuts.

We have to stand with the alums fighting back at every level, so we need as many people as possible to add their name to our petition. Stand with us by adding your name here.

Thank you!

Danielle Noel Deputy Communications Director
