A new message from your friends at People For the American Way.

Friend,
Even as they were busy dismantling core LGBTQ+ rights and affirmative
action policies, Justices Thomas, Gorsuch, and Alito all benefited from
luxury trips or property sales engineered by people with big stakes in
having a far-right Court majority.
It’s corruption, pure and simple.
That’s why People For the American Way is campaigning to establish a
binding code of ethics for the Supreme Court. Congress is taking notice—
the Senate Judiciary Committee is poised to take action on Senator
Whitehouse’s SCOTUS ethics bill and Senator Warren and Representative
Jayapal have also introduced a major reform bill as well. Now we need your
help to make sure that badly needed Supreme Court ethics legislation
becomes the law of the land.

courts and judges. Remember, every gift until midnight tomorrow can be
MATCHED 2X to go twice as far for justice.

“Over the years, [Clarence Thomas’s] friends have welcomed him at their vacation
retreats, arranged V.I.P. access to sporting events and invited him to their
lavish parties.”
— The New York Times, July 9, 2023
But that’s not all: right-wing lawmakers are also attempting to block
President Biden from filling lower court vacancies with fair-minded
judicial nominees — in effect preserving the harm that Trump and Mitch
McConnell foisted on us by stacking the lower courts - along with the
Supreme Court - with extreme-right judges ready to rule in favor of the
wealthy and well-connected.
But thanks to the support of allies like you, we’ve already achieved
important victories during the Biden Administration, like…
* The confirmation of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme
Court;
* Nearly 140 fair-minded judges confirmed to the lower federal courts;
* Making federal courts a priority for progressive activists; and more.
Yet, as I write this email, there are many immensely qualified, talented
nominees with track records of working for justice all waiting to be
confirmed to the federal bench.
[ [link removed] ]Your gift now will be doubled to help ensure that our advocacy to help
confirm fair-minded judges goes twice as far — so don’t wait!
People For the American Way has been leading the charge for more than 40
years for a federal justice system that works for all of us. We have the
experience, the determination, and the supporters — that includes you! —
but winning this fight will take more resources.
Help us take advantage of this generous matching gift offer. [ [link removed] ]Make your
donation before it expires tomorrow at midnight!
Thank you.
Zach, People For the American Way
