Leader Schumer Statement Condemning Proposed USPS Mail-In Voting Rule That Threatens Democracy

New York, N.Y. - Today, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) released the following statement after the U.S. Postal Service announced a new rule that would radically crack down on voting by mail:
"After a MAGA judge allowed Trump's plan to silence Americans' votes to go forward, the USPS is now trying to implement his pernicious, unconstitutional, and illegal scheme.
"Mail-in voting is safe and secure - period. This new rule is just another malicious attempt by the Trump administration to suppress the votes of millions and try to throw the election results.
"Democrats will continue our fight in the courts and in Congress to ensure that every voter can cast their ballot this November."
