Congress and Governors: Defend Our Freedom to Vote!

Donald Trump recently announced he plans to sign an executive order that would ban vote-by-mail, restrict voting machines, and put federal overseers in charge of state elections.

It’s up to Congress and state legislatures to pass voting reforms—not the executive branch. But this isn’t about “reform.” It’s an attempt at a hostile takeover of secure elections, and it's designed to silence voters—especially Black, brown, young, and working-class Americans.

We need Congress and governors to fight back against this blatant power grab and defend our freedom to vote. Sign the petition.

Why is this important?

Trump is using fear and fabricated fraud claims to justify imposing authoritarian control over elections. It’s the same tactic he’s trotted out in the past—and now he’s doing it from the White House.

Elections in the United States already have rigorous checks and balances to keep them safe and secure. Trump isn’t interested in protecting elections; this executive order would strip away the very freedoms that make them fair and accessible, like vote-by-mail and drop boxes.

Trump’s goal is clear: silence millions of Americans by making it harder to vote.

Congress and governors must act now to reject Trump’s power grab and defend the basic principle that in America, voters pick our leaders—not the other way around.

Add your name to tell Congress and governors to protect our freedom to vote in the face of Trump’s attacks.
