Time To Write Letters and Postcards
Join the national effort The Big Send to send 10 million letters to voters before the general election in November.
Here’s how it works: over the next few months, you write letters (yes, physical letters!) to voters, sharing why you vote and why it’s important than they do. You put them in envelopes and stash them in a safe spot in your house.
Then, in October, you’ll get a reminder to slap a stamp on each envelope and drop it in the mail. The United States Postal Service will deliver the messages to each voter and, if we’re successful, 10 million more people will vote!

You can also join IW’s postcarding efforts to help elect Democrats around the country. Email communications@indivisiblewestchester.org for more information.

How to Vote By Mail
Democrats voting in the June 23rd primary have the option of voting my mail. In order to do so, you must fill out an absentee ballot application – click here to download the application and check the box labeled “temporary illness.” In addition, all voters will receive a postage paid absentee ballot application in the mail.

Save USPS
COVID-19 proves we need to be able to vote by mail; however the United States Postal Service is in serious danger of going bust with elections right around the corner. The USPS has also reaffirmed their policy to deliver mail-in ballots without postage so please sign this petition,this one, this one.and this new one from the American Postal Workers Union. Please share widely!

Fight For Federal Funding
New York’s financial situation is dire. Governor Cuomo is threatening 20% across the board budget cuts because of the financial strain caused by the pandemic. We need New York’s Congressional delegation to fight for a federal stimulus packagethat helps bridge the funding gap.
Call your member of Congress today and ask them to push for increased funding. Click here for a sample letter to send lawmakers regarding school funding. Without federal aid, NY schools will be back at 2014 levels.
