Supporter,

The Supreme Court is supposed to be the last line of defense against
attacks on our fundamental freedoms and constitutional rights. But today’s
Court does not honor that solemn duty. Instead, the ultraconservative
supermajority on the bench prioritizes corporate interests, ultra-wealthy
donors, and hyper partisan political agendas.

In the years since Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell nominated and
confirmed three of the nine justices, John Roberts' Supreme Court has
overturned Roe v. Wade, blocked President Biden’s pandemic eviction
moratorium, reinstated Donald Trump’s cruel ‘Remain in Mexico’ policy,
curtailed workers’ rights to organize, seriously weakened the separation
of church and state and so much more. And the Court still has several
pending decisions to issue in its current term that could further
undermine our rights!

Court! We cannot allow the ultraconservative and authoritarian Court
majority to further erode our rights! >>

At the same time, the list of scandals erupting around conservative
justices is only getting longer.

Clarence Thomas secretly accepted millions of dollars' worth of lavish
gifts from a billionaire mega-donor, Brett Kavanaugh had an alarming 83
ethics complaints filed against him even before being confirmed, Amy Coney
Barrett refused to recuse herself from a case involving her father’s
longtime former employer, and John Roberts's wife has been paid large sums
by firms with cases before the Court.

We urgently need to restore balance to the Supreme Court. The Constitution
allows Congress to change the number of justices and it has been done in
the past: lawmakers have done so seven different times throughout American
history. Adding seats to the Court is a practical, proportional response
that would allow us to stop the harm being done and restore its balance
and integrity.

In the face of an unaccountable, unethical majority on the Supreme Court
determined to strip Americans of our freedoms, we need Congress to deliver
the reforms necessary to protect our democracy. That starts with expanding
the Court.
