We have to talk about #USPSsabotage and a new bill in the House to stop it. /THREAD

washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/…
Trump is doing everything in his power to destroy the #USPS and make it impossible for voters to vote by mail during a pandemic -- slowing down Social Security checks for seniors, prescriptions for veterans, and hurting small businesses in the process.

cnn.com/2020/08/13/pol…
He's opposed emergency funding for USPS and the Nov elections contained in the Heroes Act, but denying USPS the funds it needs is only a part of a larger plan. (Yes, you should still demand your senators pass emergency funding for USPS and our elections: indivisible.org/trump%E2%80%99…)
Trump's partner in the project to destroy the Postal Service is Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, the GOP megadonor who has given millions of dollars to the Trump campaign and the Republican Party, and has been on the job for just two months.

washingtonpost.com/politics/top-r…
"DeJoy banned overtime and told carriers to leave mail behind at distribution centers, causing it to pile up day after day. Employees also report that sorting machines that help speed mail processing have been removed from postal facilities."

This is unacceptable – the Postal Service is not a tool of any political party, and it cannot be treated as such. Period.
Yesterday, @OversightDems Chairwoman @RepMaloney introduced a new bill meant to respond to Trump's political games. nydailynews.com/news/politics/…
The Delivering for America Act would prohibit the Postal Service from implementing any changes to the operations or level of service it had in place on 1/1/20, until COVID has ended.
.@RepMaloney is right: "Our Postal Service should not become an instrument of partisan politics, but instead must be protected as a neutral, independent entity that focuses on one thing and one thing only—delivering the mail."
Remember: the House voted months ago to allow both remote voting & virtual hearings. @HouseDemocrats could move this bill right now. Not only would it set up a fight for inclusion in the next COVID package, but it would force @senatemajldr on the record.

nytimes.com/2020/05/15/us/…
Ready? Call 1-833-522-8923 and demand your representative cosponsor @RepMaloney's Delivering for America Act and speak out publicly on the urgent need for the House to move this critical legislation.

Here’s what we honestly believe: We’re going to win. 🧵
We know the polls are chaotic, but based on every input we have — the Indivisible groups in the field, the anecdotes from the doors, the quality of the campaigns, the dominant policy issues at play, the volunteer energy, and the voter enthusiasm — we believe we will win.
But belief isn’t enough. You still have the power to influence the outcome with one day left to go.

No matter where you live, you can make a difference in this election over the next 24 hours! Plug in your zip code and we’ll show you all your options. 👇 majorityovermaga.org/all-in?source=…

Labor Day is about celebrating the progress won by American workers. And on this Labor Day, it's worth celebrating the resurgence of unions in our country.

This summer has provided plenty of examples of the power of unions, collective action, and solidarity. 🧵 Image

We just won the most important election of 2023! @janetforjustice’s victory tonight creates a liberal majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court ahead of anticipated seismic cases on abortion access, voting rights, and fair maps. This is a huge win for our democracy!
It puts an end to the judicial rubber stamp for the rigged legislature’s experiments in anti-majoritarian governance in a state that has become a testing ground for the GOP’s efforts to lock in minority rule across the country.
This win will likely result in abortion rights being restored in the state. It could lead to the first fair elections in years for the state’s legislature and even result in newly competitive seats in the House ahead of 2024.

What’s happening in Nashville this week is about gun violence and our continued fight for our lives. It’s also about the MAGA GOP’s reflexive need to attack our democracy any time they’re confronted with the deadly consequences of their policies. 🧵tn.chalkbeat.org/2023/4/3/23668…
Students at school, congregants at places of worship, shoppers at grocery stores: no matter who we are, we're all at continued risk because of legislative inaction. Folks in Tennessee, like countless communities devastated by gun violence, are literally fighting for their lives.
Most people want our government to do something about gun violence. Many made their voices heard in Nashville this week. At first, this outcry was met with disturbing indifference: TN’s own @RepTimBurchett admitted they weren’t going to fix the problem. nbcnews.com/politics/congr…

Speaking of shameful, let's talk about some of the actually shameful things @RealMarkFinchem does (like being too afraid to @ us).

Let’s start with being a self-identified member of the Oath Keepers. time.com/6203011/mark-f… Image
Mark Finchem isn’t just talk though - he traveled across the country to join his fellow Oath Keepers for the insurrection on January 6 at the US Capitol.
azmirror.com/2021/06/02/mar…
Mark Finchem didn’t just attend the January 6 riots though, he was a key planner in starting this dangerous campaign in Arizona.

*taps microphone* And now an important message from Secretary @HillaryClinton!

We're all focused on winning the midterms and defending our congressional majorities. That’s critical. But we also must take the fight to MAGA Republicans at the state level: crushthecoup.org
All our Crush the Coup candidates are running in highly competitive races and we’ve identified one from each state who is facing extra challenges that an infusion of late cash will help them overcome. If you're able, please consider making a donation: secure.actblue.com/donate/crushth… Image
These are races we can win but these six candidates need more support. People running for state legislature don’t have the benefit of big email lists, media coverage, or nationwide name recognition, but their races could very well determine what kind of democracy we have in 2024. Image
