The Trump administration is actively undermining the United States Postal Service ahead of what could be the largest election where people vote by mail.

Congress must immediately step up to support the USPS and take swift action to safeguard our elections. It can’t wait.

Listen to @jackblack:

BE A HERO.

WEAR A MASK.

#YourActionsSaveLives

[County of Riverside @RivCoNow]

#DidYouKnow wearing a mask can decrease risk of #COVID19 transmission by 60-80%? And if both people talking are wearing a mask, the risk is decreased by 90% or more?

Thanks #RivCo Economic Recovery Task Force and @VisitGreaterPS for this great message!

Graduating is a big achievement no matter what, but with all that the Class of 2020 has dealt with to get across the finish line, I think they’ve earned a little celebration. I hope you’ll all join me in honoring them at 2PM ET and 8PM ET.
