[ [link removed] ]People For’s Impact: Outstanding Federal Judges Nominated and Confirmed
People For has recently scored important victories in our years-long
campaign to ensure fair courts with highly-qualified, fair-minded, diverse
judges committed to justice and equality for all. We were a major player
in helping to secure the nomination and confirmation of a stunningly
diverse slate of extraordinarily qualified judges. We worked with the
White House to encourage the nomination of high-quality nominees and with
the Senate Judiciary Committee and full Senate to process and confirm
them.
We should celebrate these historic nominees and continue pressing the
Senate to confirm even more.

Republicans are not holding back in supporting Trump for reelection in
2024 – they’re doubling down: on his authoritarian agenda, his brazen and
dangerous behavior, and the incendiary propaganda and lies he spreads each
and every day.
That’s why your support in 2024 is VITAL to ensuring that we can once
again defeat Trump and other MAGA Republicans at the ballot box this
November.

[ [link removed] ]Stopping Donald Trump Could Hinge on These Court Cases Pending Against
Him
Stopping the re-election of Donald Trump is crucial to protecting American
democracy and ensuring all of our rights. There are numerous civil and
criminal court cases against Trump now pending in federal and state
courts. The lawsuits challenging whether Trump can remain on the ballot
have also drawn much attention. As we enter prime presidential campaign
season, a key question for all of us is how these cases - and what happens
in them over the next six months - are important to stopping Trump’s
effort to return to the White House. Let’s take a look.

[ [link removed] ]OP-ED: State Governments Are Ready and Waiting to Strip Citizens’
Rights in 2024
The whole country has now witnessed a nightmare worthy of “The Handmaid’s
Tale” unfold for a Texas woman. After a court denied the abortion Kate
Cox’s doctors said was medically necessary, she was forced to flee her
home state to get care because of Texas’s extreme abortion ban. The case
exposed not just one family’s heartbreak, but also the hollowness of
promises that abortion bans can include exceptions for the life and health
of the mother.

Right Wing Watch “essential.”
In this piece we highlight some of Right Wing Watch’s recent reporting on
right-wing extremists and the agenda they’re pushing across the country.

[ [link removed] ]Why People For’s Women’s Leadership Program Is So Important to Women
in Elected Office
Despite significant gains made for the representation of women in our
nation’s political institutions, still only a quarter of elected positions
are currently held by women.
Named in honor of People For co-founder Barbara Jordan and longtime board
member Dolores Huerta, the Jordan-Huerta YEO Women’s Leadership
Program supports women-identifying elected officials in navigating the
challenges of public office, provides them with continued professional
development, and elevates their voices and leadership within the national
progressive movement, opening the door to higher office and paving the way
for even more women in political office across the country.

As we face a growing wave of authoritarianism and anti-democratic forces,
it has never been more critical to secure the future of our democracy and
the progressive values that are under attack by right-wing extremists. One
way to join this cause is through estate planning to protect the people
and things you love, safeguard your assets, and secure a brighter future
for our country.
Despite the value of planning, the process is often inaccessible,
overwhelming, and expensive — especially to historically disenfranchised
communities. That's why we are excited to announce our new partnership
with FreeWill so that our supporters can create their wills, and plan
their estates at NO cost to you.
