The USPS changed the way it defines a postmark and it could possibly impact your ability to vote. So, next time you register to vote or vote by mail, take precautions to avoid any processing delays and meet postmark deadlines.

Your vote matters and your voice deserves to be heard in elections🗳️

Everyone deserves to be able to vote without fear of their information being accessed and misused.

We know many of us will find ourselves gathering around tables this holiday season with a wide range of folks in our lives - loved ones, friends, chosen family, and the family you'd only choose to spend one day a year with.
