True the Vote

July 19, 2026 | Read Online From Catherine Hi Friend — Thursday night, President Trump stood before the nation from the East Room of the White House and did something no president before him has had the courage to do: he told the American people the truth about the vulnerabilities in our elections. He announced the declassification of intelligence documents pointing to foreign interference, weaknesses in our voting systems, and serious questions about the accuracy of our voter rolls — and,...

July 19, 2026 Scan. Check. Protect. v2 and You Hi Friend, What if the most important work starts a lot closer to home? There has been a growing emphasis on citizen participation—not just at the polls or behind voter registration tables (though those remain incredibly important), but through knowledge. An informed citizen is an empowered citizen. That means understanding: How legislation moves and where your voice can influence the process. The power you have as a citizen and voter beyond...

History provides context, legislation creates the framework, and court decisions establish precedent. By understanding how yesterday shaped today, we can better appreciate how the decisions being made today will shape tomorrow. Some background In 2013, Congress held hearings into...

July 19, 2026 | Read Online Ten Bills, Two Directions Hi Friend, Congress and state legislatures have been busy. The past few weeks brought a fresh wave of election bills pulling in two directions: some strengthening election safeguards, others making those safeguards harder to enact or defend. Together they'd reshape who can vote, how elections are audited, and how campaigns are funded. Here's what we're watching. Highlights HR 9368 (Voter ID Act) is the one with momentum. Introduced June...

July 19, 2026 | Read Online Hi Friend — Two hundred and fifty years ago, a small group of ordinary people put their names to a piece of paper that should have gotten them hanged.

What they had was a conviction — that a free people are meant to govern themselves, and that the consent of the governed is not a slogan but a sacred trust. That trust runs through every ballot cast in this country....

July 19, 2026 | Read Online 250 Years: Continuing the Work of Self-Government Hi Friend, On Saturday, America turns 250. Two and a half centuries ago, a small group of ordinary people made an extraordinary claim: that government exists to secure the rights of the people, not the other way around. But signing that declaration was the beginning of the work, not the end of it. The generations that followed kept liberty alive by doing the unglamorous work of self-government—writing laws, serving...

July 19, 2026 Volunteers: Time to Speak Up Hi Friend, The courts handed us two losses this week on mail-in ballots. But there's a door still open, and it shuts Thursday, July 2 at 5:00 PM Eastern. The U.S. Postal Service is taking public comments on a proposed rule that would finally bring some transparency to ballot mail — the Election Mail logo on envelopes, barcodes so ballots can be tracked, and a reconciliation process to match ballots returned against ballots sent. By law, USPS has to...
