04/08/2020 Tweet - "Mail-in voting can save lives during COVID-19 & ensure that Americans' voices are heard. President Trump's admission that he's opposed to mail-in ballots for political reasons shows the truth: Republicans don't want you to vote. Lives are stake - but Trump doesn't seem to care."
