It should go without saying that The United States Postal Service is an essential service.

Americans are relying on the post office more than ever. For medications. For grocery deliveries. For communications with loved ones. For casting their ballots.

But that isn’t stopping President Trump from waging an assault on it. And he just told us all why: Because he wants to prevent voting by mail and make it harder to vote.

This is an unfathomable policy for an American President, but totally unsurprising for this President. We must do all we can to fight back and protect the USPS from Donald Trump.

Listen, the broken system that got us to Donald Trump was the result of 50 years of failed leadership. Once we defeat him in November, we are going to need to rebuild for the next 50 years. We can’t rely on the politics and the politicians of the past for the solutions, we need new leadership.

I am ready for that fight. I am ready to take on the failed structures that got us to this moment. I am ready to build the coalitions across this country to ensure we have good Democrats from statehouses to the Senate.

Will you join me in that fight? Voters all across Massachusetts have their mail-in ballots in hand, so every day from now until September 1 is election day. Will you pitch in to join and fuel this campaign so we can shift the direction this country is heading, provide affordable health care for all, show up for the forgotten communities across our state, and yes, protect our vital United States Postal Service.

P.S. If you’re on twitter, will you check out the video I tweeted out on the USPS and give it a “like” and “retweet”? It’s so important we keep up the pressure and demand our President stop assaulting our postal service and democracy.
