lessons I have learned in 30 years as a lawyer in politics is that winning in court is only half the fight. Yes, we need to use litigation as a tool to protect voting rights. But it is equally important that the public know what is going on \u2014 what is at stake.\n\u00a0\nI founded Democracy Docket in 2020 to meet that need. And there is no better example than Donald Trump's most recent assault on mail-in voting.\n\u00a0\nWhen Donald Trump signed his mail-in ballot executive order in March, my law firm filed the first lawsuit to block it. I am proud of the work we have done in the courtroom in this case and the scores of others we are litigating.\n\u00a0\nBut equally important was how Democracy Docket covered all the cases as they proceeded through the courts. It analyzed every filing and dug into angles that other outlets ignored.\n\u00a0\nWhen the Supreme Court rejected the Trump administration's attempt to reinstate its mail-in voting restrictions on Monday, Democracy Docket sprang into action. The 30-person team provided wall-to-wall news and analysis. It delivered long- and short-form video explaining the ins and outs.\n\u00a0\nWhile the legacy media sees this Supreme Court decision as just another story, Democracy Docket exists to provide deep coverage of rulings like this. Since March, Democracy Docket has published more than 40 stories on the mail-in voting executive order alone.\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n You make this work possible \u2014 thank you. If you want to go further, upgrade to our VIP tier to deepen your impact and sustains this newsroom for years to come.\n \n \n \n \n UPGRADE TO VIP\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Democracy Docket subscribers know that it dove deep into the U.S. Postal Service whistleblower allegations, highlighting warnings that the agency's rushed implementation of Trump's anti-mail voting order could devastate the midterm elections.\n\u00a0\nBefore the Supreme Court ruling came down, Democracy Docket also explored different legal theories the Court could use to save Trump's attack on mail voting. And on the very same night the ruling broke, our reporters were on top of it from the start \u2014 breaking the story with detailed analysis.\n\u00a0\nAs a premium member, you receive something more \u2014 my personal analysis and commentary.\n\u00a0\nI am not a pundit or an analyst. I am a practicing lawyer with skin in the game.

Most of what Democracy Docket offers is free to everyone, and your support is what makes that possible. I can\u2019t thank you enough.\n\u00a0\nI fight in the courtroom to ensure free and fair elections. I founded Democracy Docket because educating people about the stakes is critical for democracy to prevail.\n\u00a0\nThat's why I'm making my ask straightforward and direct: If you can, please consider upgrading to a VIP membership.
