For two decades, Republicans have been enacting a quiet plot to seize control of our judicial system all the way up to the Supreme Court.

Why? Because the far right and their dark-money backers are terrified – of the American people, of free and fair elections, of progress. They can't win fair and square, so they’d rather rule from the bench.

That’s why they’ve packed the federal courts with hundreds of loyal right-wing judges who help them weaken democracy and make progress damn near impossible.

There’s more, but first, will you chip in to my campaign so I can defend my seat in Congress, flip the House blue, and restore justice to our justice system? [[link removed]]

Republicans couldn’t have imagined a better outcome from packing SCOTUS with right-wing hacks in their wildest dreams.

They’ve gotten everything more than they ever dreamed about and then some. Their justices have squashed efforts to combat gun violence, redefined the power of federal agencies, declared presidents above the law, revoked critical environmental legislation, and legalized partisan gerrymandering. That’s just in the past couple of years, too.

Let’s not mince words: This is a slow-moving coup. It’s a concerted effort to chip away at the authority of democratically-elected leaders and expand the power of unelected judges.

I’ve proposed a bill to address this, which would create a brand-new court to handle most cases involving the federal government made up of 13 justices selected randomly from across the nation. The result would be a court that prioritizes the law over political loyalties.

But the only way a bill like this will ever become law is if folks like you get behind it, and show that you’re willing to fight back. That’s why I hope you’ll consider chipping in $10 to help boost legislation like mine and fix our broken federal courts once and for all. [[link removed]]
