What you can do today

They are trying to silence our voices.

Trump is doing everything in his power to, as he put it, “guarantee” the 2026 midterms.  Through recycling old conspiracy theories, silencing millions of voters through illegal executive orders, or taking legal action against any state that dares to question him. It’s clear that he wants total control and is willing to attack and cast doubt on our election process to get it. [1] Pamela, this is just the beginning. The midterms are quickly approaching, and Trump’s power grab is far from over. That’s why we’re writing to let you know about an action you can take right now to ensure a free and fair 2026 election: sponsor an Election Protection volunteer. We know that Trump won’t just stop here. And to prepare for more of his anti-voter threats, we’re rapidly expanding our Election Protection volunteer program. Election Protection is voters’ first line of defense against any attempt to deny their rights. It brings together the volunteer power, state-level know-how, and legal expertise required to call out these voter suppression schemes for what they are and stop them. Each election year, we train, recruit, and deploy thousands of Election Protection volunteers to be friendly, non-partisan faces at polling locations across the country. It’s some of the most powerful work we do here at Common Cause – empowering those who otherwise wouldn't have a say in the decisions that affect them and their families. We hope you can agree that this is what democracy is all about. It costs around $50 to train and place one Election Protection volunteer, and each volunteer makes a difference for hundreds of voters. So, Pamela, can you sponsor one of these volunteers (or however many you can) today with a tax-deductible donation?
