2026 Call to Action

In 2026, the fight for control of the House once again runs straight through New York. This year, we’re working to re-elect Governor Hochul and elect Democrats up and down the ballot, because the future of the country will be shaped by what happens here in our own backyard.

At the same time, we are preparing to protect voters and safeguard our election systems to ensure every eligible New Yorker can cast a ballot without barriers, confusion, or intimidation. This will be an all-hands-on-deck effort across the state, and we need you in this fight.

MAIL VOTING litigation

Update on Mail Voting Executive Order

We’ve entered a new phase of litigation over Trump’s mail-voting executive order directing the federal government to create a list of eligible voters and giving USPS control over mail ballot delivery.

At every step of the way, Democrats have been ready to meet the moment, immediately filing new challenges.

There are currently three separate, ongoing lawsuits,  including one brought by our own Attorney General Letitia James as part of a coalition of 25 Democratic states.

As a result, a nationwide temporary restraining order is in place barring USPS from implementing the order for 14 days while courts weigh in on this new wave of lawsuits. We expect any adverse rulings against the administration to be appealed to the Supreme Court.

Let us be clear: the executive order and USPS ballot restriction rule are unconstitutional and seek to sow chaos and confusion. This is an evolving, fast-moving landscape, but the law is on our side.

Stay tuned for more updates in the coming days and weeks.
