USPS
Why you should be alarmed:
The Guardian: Trump admits he is undermining USPS to make it harder to vote by mail: The president says he opposes providing additional money to the postal service to help it deliver mail-in ballots
“They need that money in order to have the post office work so it can take all of these millions and millions of ballots,” Trump said in an interview with Fox Business’s Maria Bartiromo. “If they don’t get those two items, that means you can’t have universal mail-in voting because they’re not equipped to have it.”
Calling your representatives, with suggestions on what you should be demanding they do:

The APWU are keeping it simple:

Call your Senators urgently. Tell them to support at least $25 billion in stimulus funding for our public Postal Service.
Contact details for the USPS Board of Governors, with suggested e-mail and phone scripts:
