An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Stop the False Claims About Jimmy Carter and Mail-In Voting

6 so far! Help us get to 10 signers!

The Trump administration is lying about Jimmy Carter's position on mail-in voting, claiming he opposed it based on a 2005 bipartisan commission report. This is a deliberate misrepresentation of a respected former president's work, and it needs to stop. Using a deceased president's name to push false narratives about election security is disgraceful. The 2005 Commission on Federal Election Reform that Carter co-chaired with James Baker did not oppose mail-in voting in the way this administration claims. Twisting the words of bipartisan election reform efforts to score political points shows these officials care more about their image than about honest governance. I expect you to publicly correct this false claim and demand accountability from anyone in the administration spreading this misinformation. Americans deserve leaders who tell the truth about our election systems, not ones who manipulate the legacy of a 39th president to manufacture controversy. Call out this lie directly.
