Our civil rights and liberties are worth fighting for. Our communities are worth fighting for. Our families are worth fighting for. America is worth fighting for. That's why we vote.

Given Supreme Court rulings on mail ballots and Trump's effort to undermine the Postal Service, I strongly suggest that you now vote in person - try early voting or find a drop box. Protect your health but don’t let anyone deprive you of your most precious right. Have a plan.
