John,

Trump just FIRED every member of the independent Election Assistance Commission — which is supposed to provide crucial support to election officials across the country. [1]

This is the latest attack in Trump's scheme to influence the midterm elections and silence millions — but it won't be the last.

Common Cause is working around the clock to ensure We The People are heard. Read on to learn how you can make a direct impact on thousands of voters.

John,

We want to tell you about one of the most powerful things you can do to protect our democracy: sponsor an Election Protection volunteer.

Trump and his MAGA allies have made it clear that their path back to power depends on suppressing votes. They’re pushing new restrictions, spreading lies about our elections, and even threatening to station ICE at polling places.

Our Election Protection program is facing greater threats than ever before — but we already know how to fight back. Each election cycle, Common Cause trains tens of thousands of volunteers to serve as nonpartisan helpers at polling places. They answer questions, help voters overcome barriers, and ensure every ballot is cast and counted.

It costs about $50 to train and deploy one volunteer from early voting through Election Day. Your gift today will help sponsor volunteers in key states — people who will make the difference between having a voice and going home in frustration.

If you’re ready to step into our collective power, will you sponsor a volunteer today?
