okay, because dO sOmEtHiNg is taking over, here are some things democrats *are* doing, and here are some things *you* can do. i'll try to add to this as things happen.
first and foremost, there's a poll worker shortage. if you can do so, volunteer to be a poll worker. here's how you get started: https://www.eac.gov/voters/become-poll-worker
second, here's that well-known leftist firebrand joe manchin introducing the POST act to the senate: https://twitter.com/Sen_JoeManchin/status/1294378943550824455
third, elizabeth warren and eight other congressional democrats wrote the the postal service inspector general and have prompted an investigation: https://www.warren.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/2020.08.07%20Letter%20to%20Postal%20Service%20IG.pdf
fourth, HEROES, which mitch mcconnell still will not introduce to the senate, includes $25B in USPS funding: https://www.speaker.gov/newsroom/81420-2
fifth, all the democratic party's big guns have sent a detailed set of questions to the postmaster general, which is a precursor for investigations: https://www.speaker.gov/sites/speaker.house.gov/files/20200814_Letter_JointPelosiSchumerLofgrenKlobucharCBMPeterstoPMGreElectionPrep.pdf
sixth, murphy is proactively sending all new jersey registered voters ballots: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/new-jersey-will-send-ballots-to-all-active-registered-voters-for-november-election-governor-says/2020/08/14/d7c5fb7e-de36-11ea-809e-b8be57ba616e_story.html?hpid=hp_hp-top-table-high_njvote-225pm%3Ahomepage%2Fstory-ans
seventh, maxine waters is making some noise, which is probably more genuinely useful given the circumstances than trying to schedule a bunch of hearings and compel testimony: https://twitter.com/cmarinucci/status/1294385854559842309?s=20
eigth, maloney has introduced the delivering for america act: https://maloney.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/congresswoman-maloney-introduces-delivering-for-america-act-to-protect
ninth, speaking of hearings, house oversight and reform have one scheduled for sept. 17th: https://maloney.house.gov/media-center/newsletters/update-east-river-esplanade-sinkhole-saving-the-usps-climate-change-action
tenth, ted lieu is working with groups to provide state-specific instructions for making sure people understand where and how and when to get their ballots sent back in plenty of time: https://twitter.com/tedlieu/status/1294331084272881664?s=20
we have a national media who refuse to accurately respond to lies in real time and a national social media who demand that congressional democrats dO sOmEtHiNg on-demand, but thats not how organized resistance actually works and both of these groups are more harmful than helpful.
