USPS delays, long lines, missed postmarks ... they all point to election infrastructure and how important it is to have.
If this election has taught us anything, it's that we need sound election infrastructure.

We have worked so hard these past four years and today's breaking news of Joe Biden winning in the 2020 Election was so worth it all.
But we have seen what worked here in New Jersey:
* Ballot drop boxes
* Not requiring a postmark if received within 48 hours
* The ability to track your ballot
* Not allowing your vote to be rejected due to faulty envelopes
* Giving voters the ability to cure their ballot due to signature issues and more
We, Action Together New Jersey, did this 👆. No other organization had the expertise, interest, or time to do this work. We were the ONLY organization doing this work and we got 3 election bills passed into law IN ONE YEAR. This critical year in our democracy and we did this. It is historic and unheard of. It is not being boastful but owning the narrative and taking credit where it is due.
What's next?
* Expanding voter base by allowing 17yo to vote in the primary if they turn 18 prior to the General Election
* Getting 1 ballot drop box per town
* Getting ADA-compliant drop boxes so you can drive and drop
* Amending the Ballot Cure Act to reduce ballot rejections even more
* New legislation to require the Secretary of State to update and eliminate rejection codes.
This 👆 is the work. But after four years, I cannot continue as an unpaid volunteer. So, I'm asking you today to both sign up to help and to donate to our nonprofit.

Thank you for your support. Please be generous. I am worthy of your donation. I've done good work and I see the need to continue to doing this work. Leaving you on this day with a joyous photo of my niece, channeling my joy.
With gratitude,
