Ok, here& #39;s a list of #USPS actions for anyone who needs it, divided with federal/state/local actions.

1. Please share as needed.

2. I want to stress: because we are still in a pandemic, states/local gov. are willing to consider emergency options they normally wouldn& #39;t.
If I& #39;m recommending it, it& #39;s because I think it merits an ask/it& #39;s based on experience + it& #39;s not out of the realm of possibility!

I& #39;m definitely not going to tell you to waste your time on something that doesn& #39;t make sense.

Also, a LOT of action points, so using https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts">

A. Legislation

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts">The House passed the #HeroesAct on 05/15 w/ $25 billion to USPS, including priority focus on PPE: https://m.npmhu.org/media/news/heroes-act-provides-relief-for-postal-employees

Because they& #39;re home:

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts">Call the *district offices* or DOs of your Senators.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts">The full list of your Senators is here: https://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm

You can also email or fax in a message.
The #HeroesAct is emergency funding for the USPS + COVID-related problems.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts">But the USPS& #39;s longer-term financial problems are because of a *2006 GOP law* which requires retirements be pre-funded.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts"> @NALC_National wanted to cancel this in 2018: https://www.nalc.org/news/nalc-updates/its-the-prefunding-stupid">https://www.nalc.org/news/nalc...
Please make sure you tell electeds (especially GOP):

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts">You *know* USPS& #39;s financial challenges are because of pre-funding, because they& #39;re blaming/excusing DeJoy& #39;s changes due to structural issues.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts"> Here& #39;s a report discussing pre-funding, if needed: https://www.nalc.org/news/nalc-updates/its-the-prefunding-stupid">https://www.nalc.org/news/nalc...
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts">A critical, longer-term goal is legislation to eliminate pre-funding, and we should 100% tell our electeds as much.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts"> You can remind electeds on both sides the House passed the bipartisan H.R.2382 in February, and there& #39;s decent support. https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/2382/cosponsors?searchResultViewType=expanded">https://www.congress.gov/bill/116t...
Additional talking points on why urgent legislation is needed:

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen"> USPS are frontline workers who deserve hazard pay,
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen"> USPS anticipated a $13 billion revenue loss in April due to COVID. https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/10/politics/postal-service-congress-help/index.html

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen"> We& #39;re likely going to need the USPS to help deliver a vaccine for COVID,
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen"> Small businesses depend on USPS to function (e.g. Etsy stores)
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen"> Obviously, vote by mail.
B. Investigations/Hearings

There are multiple investigations/hearings in Congress right now over DeJoy& #39;s actions, including:

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts"> @SenGaryPeters requesting public input re: #USPS slowdowns as Ranking Member of Homeland Security/ Governmental Affairs: https://www.peters.senate.gov/postal ">https://www.peters.senate.gov/postal&qu...
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts"> Senators are also out in the field, visiting post offices to get a sense of what& #39;s happening on the ground.

E.g. @Sen_JoeManchin: https://www.wdtv.com/2020/08/14/manchin-tours-harrison-county-post-office/">https://www.wdtv.com/2020/08/1...
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts"> What we can do:

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen"> Encourage everyone experiencing mail slowdowns to fill out the Peters form.
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen"> Tell electeds we support ALL of these hearings and investigations. They need to continue + be public.
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen"> Tell electeds they ALL need to tour local USPS facilities like Manchin.
C. Federal candidates/campaigns

More of an indirect list of actions, but every candidate running for federal office right now should be able to:

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen">Explain why USPS has been losing $ (pre-funding!)
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen">What actions they& #39;ve taken to save USPS/help voting (for incumbents)
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen">Or actions they would support, if they& #39;re a first-time candidate and elected.

This is important, because the challenges w/ USPS are not short-term. We need officials who get the longer term battle.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts"> What we can do: support USPS-savvy electeds, especially Senators.
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts"> Remember: the Senate confirms individuals like the USPS Board of Governors ( https://about.usps.com/who/leadership/board-governors/)">https://about.usps.com/who/leade...

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts">We need a Dem Senate majority, to support a Dem President& #39;s nominees - just like all other critical nominees.

(And honestly: having the right electeds really does matter.

A graduate school classmate wrote her final paper on how frustrating it was for her to see USPS pushed aside as an issue year after year, because it hasn& #39;t been urgent... until now.

Support electeds who prioritize)

State level actions need to be a big focus when it comes to the impact of #USPS and voting in November.

Why, you ask? Because our system of voting is decentralized and it& #39;s state-by-state.

The actions here are more direct & immediate action for each of us.

This is tough, because COVID deficits being experienced at all levels of gov. BUT still worth asking.

It& #39;s generally accepted people w/ voting plans will vote. Ask friends/family these questions too.

Your county registrar of voters is the local body putting on elections in your area.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts"> First things first? Know the contact for your registrar: https://www.usvotefoundation.org/vote/eoddomestic.htm

Because">https://www.usvotefoundation.org/vote/eodd... they + their team will be overseeing issues on Election Day. Know who to call.
A lot of what I said in the state section apply here, so I& #39;ll keep it short. Use your county registrar to figure out:

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts"> Figure out when your ballot (if by mail)
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts"> Are there local drop-off locations?
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts"> Or what& #39;s your local vote center/polling location?
Beyond just voting, your county registrar is your point to:

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts"> Reach out if you want to volunteer to be a poll worker (check requirements; what they need, etc.)

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="➡️" title="Pfeil nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach rechts"> (Jointly, with your County Board): Reach out and ask if they have plans to expand vote collection given USPS.
E.g. Can they arrange for:

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen"> Additional polling locations?
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen"> Additional drop-off locations/boxes/collection points?

E.g. my old office building used to have a regular box in the lobby, watched over by building security. Is this something that can be replicated?
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen"> Additional PPE for poll workers, and protections for any new locations that can potentially be open?

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen">Can they work with their partners at other levels of government to get funding to carry out points, if needed?
Under normal circumstances, a lot of things would already be locked into place.

But because of COVID, things are shifting, so it doesn& #39;t hurt to *ask* - e.g. what we saw in Kentucky today. Asking encourages staff to realize there& #39;s an issue, and encourages them to solve it.

Some recommendations on how to thank USPS employeeshttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⬅️" title="Pfeil nach links" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach links">

I think it& #39;s important for all us to remember it can& #39;t be easy to work for USPS right now. Can you support your local mail carrier/postal staff/see what they need?
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen"> Can you send a thank-you note to your mail carrier/local branch staff?

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Fettes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes Häkchen">Can you help see what your specific branch might need - e.g. do they need PPE? Can you make/send cloth masks?

Because if you remember: #HeroesAct provided urgent PPE $, but it *hasn& #39;t passed*.
