Indivisibles,
This afternoon, a federal judge put a hold on the Trump administration’s
attacks on the Postal Service. He [ [link removed] ]reiterated what we’ve known the whole
time: “[Trump and Postmaster General DeJoy] are involved in a politically
motivated attack on the efficiency of the Postal Service...this attack on
the Postal Service is likely to irreparably harm the states’ ability to
administer the 2020 general election.”
And it’s not just the post office -- last month the [ [link removed] ]Washington Post
reported on the RNC’s literal plans to contest the results of the
election. [ [link removed] ]Barack Obama and [ [link removed] ]Hillary Clinton both spoke out about
their fears for November. And Trump [ [link removed] ]straight up admitted he’s planning
to interfere.
Trump thinks he can steal this election. And if we don’t take action, he
might be able to.
Luckily, many experts saw this coming, and we’re already working on a plan
to fight back. It’s called Protect the Results -- a joint effort between
almost 100 (and counting!) partner organizations to prepare for a mass
mobilization if Trump loses the election and refuses to leave office.
We’ve got three steps to get ready for a potential Trump-manufactured
constitutional crisis:
1. Develop mobilization strategies -- using the possible scenarios gamed
out by experts, we’re planning for what our response needs to look
like to protect our democracy.
2. Recruit for grassroots turnout -- with ads, media coverage, digital
organizing, and more, we’re getting the word out to the people (that’s
you!) to [ [link removed] ]sign up at ProtectTheResults.com so we’re ready to act the
moment we need to.
3. Prepare for events nationwide -- working with experts, our coalition,
and grassroots leaders, we’re planning for the mobilizations and
informed mass action we’ll need if Trump refuses to accept the
election results.
All those plans take massive effort and resources -- from the digital ads
and infrastructure we’re paying for to the time we’re spending working
with coalition partners and briefing reporters. If we have to put our
plans into action, we’re expecting to spend over $1.2 million, and we need
your help.

We’d love to think we won’t have to use these plans come Election Day, but
we know we need to be ready. It’s going to take all of us to make it
happen -- thanks for doing your part.
