Gerry Connolly for Congress

SIGN ON NOW: SAVE THE USPS! → 

 

We'll be honest, when we wrote to you last week we thought it was ridiculous that Trump was attacking Gerry for defending the U.S. Postal Service.

It seemed like yet another petty moment from a president who’s had all too many -- and a good reminder for us of why we’re proud to have a serious progressive like Gerry fighting for us in Congress! We couldn’t imagine that Gerry’s bipartisan efforts to save the postal service wouldn’t gain the President’s support.

But, we were wrong: In the midst of the coronavirus crisis Trump is still refusing to give aid to the USPS, which desperately needs relief. Trump has even gone so far as to threaten to veto any legislation that includes grants or funding to support USPS.

Last weekend, Gerry went on MSNBC to share his concerns about the damage Trump is doing to this essential service.

And now, he’s counting on you to do your part too: Sign on to demand the Trump administration supply the USPS with the funding it needs! → 

SIGN ON NOW

Not only is the USPS an American institution, it provides essential services to American families every day -- connecting us to distant family and friends, delivering medication, paychecks and stimulus checks, and online packages, and even bringing us communications from the government. Today, our postal workers are risking their lives by ensuring these services continue during a pandemic. 

It’s time for Trump to stop picking fights and start putting the American people first: Will you join Gerry in demanding Trump to stop tearing down the USPS and get them the funding they need to weather this economic crisis?

Team,

As the coronavirus pandemic continues to impact families across our nation, Gerry has been busy fighting to protect working people, essential services, and valuable resources.

But what has the President been doing? Well, after blocking Gerry’s bipartisan efforts to protect essential postal services in the CARES Act, Trump spent yesterday’s press conference deflecting responsibility and making petty and personal attacks against Gerry. 

Despite Trump’s insults, Gerry is working hard to help working-class Americans amidst the coronavirus crisis. Will you show your support for Gerry during this onslaught by making a contribution now?

Once again, Trump is putting a personal vendetta against Democrats like Gerry above the wellbeing of everyday Americans. This is not how the President of the United States should act, especially during a time of crisis.

But Gerry isn’t afraid of Trump. Trust us, we can promise Gerry isn’t going to stop fighting for the people of Virginia's 11th District and he’ll never back down from providing the leadership we deserve.

Even still, Gerry needs to know that you have his back against these attacks from our nation’s leader. Can Gerry count on you to show your support for him today, and through everything that 2020 may bring, by committing to a monthly contribution of $11 now?

DONATE $11 MONTHLY

Thanks for your support, team! Gerry will be glad to know you have his back.
