Voornaam,

With less than 100 days until a nationwide election that will see record numbers of Americans casting their ballots by mail, this headline is deeply troubling:

According to reporting from the Washington Post, the "U.S. Postal Service is experiencing days-long backlogs of mail across the country after a top Trump donor running the agency put in place new procedures described as cost-cutting efforts, alarming postal workers who warn that the policies could undermine their ability to deliver ballots on time for the November election."

It hasn't even been two months since Trump installed Louis DeJoy, one of his top donors, as postmaster general — and DeJoy is already doing everything he can to undermine the USPS.

Trump is attacking vote-by-mail every chance he gets, threatening to delay the election, and now with his fundraiser-turned-postmaster general sabotaging the USPS, we need to do everything we can to fight back.

We're less than 24 hours away from our big July fundraising deadline. If you're able, will you chip in to help defeat Trump and elect Oregon Democrats this fall? Remember, you can use your 2020 Oregon Political Tax Credit to give – it's like a free $50 donation.

DeJoy's cuts at the USPS are resulting in delays in mail delivery all across the country, even for express mail, earning him the nickname "Louis DeLay."

Vote-by-Mail is the Oregon Way, and we're prepared to conduct this fall's election entirely by mail because Oregon has been doing it that way for more than 20 years.

We know that the dedicated postal workers at the USPS will be doing everything they can to ensure ballots arrive in time this fall. But with Trump's donor/postmaster general calling the shots, we have to work even harder to contact voters and make sure they turn in their ballots as soon as possible.

Our July fundraising deadline is tonight at midnight, and we need support from Oregon Democrats like you to make sure we hit our goal. Will you donate to the Democratic Party of Oregon?

P.S. You can qualify for the Oregon Political Tax Credit if you're an Oregon taxpayer making under $75,000, or $150,000 per year as part of a joint-filing couple. If you qualify, you can give up to $50 per year to a state political party and receive the full amount as a credit subtracted from your Oregon state taxes when you file (If you're part of a joint-filing couple, you can give up to $100 a year). Don't qualify? We can still use your help funding our important work to elect Democrats in 2020! Please donate any amount you can today.
