Email from Defend Our Courts   John, Last week, the Supreme Court ruled in Trump’s favor, handing him unprecedented power. The ruling limits the ability of federal judges to block Trump’s unconstitutional executive orders from taking place nationwide and allows Trump’s executive order to end birthright citizenship to proceed through lower courts. Birthright citizenship is a right guaranteed to all Americans in the 14th amendment, which was ratified 157 years ago. It guarantees citizenship to anyone born within the United States, regardless of their parents citizenship status. Ending birthright citizenship will make millions of Americans eligible for deportation — causing utter chaos and panic throughout America. Just last week, militarized Border Control agents in Huntington Park, California used breach charges to blow open the door of a home belonging to a U.S. citizen without warning, raiding the house brandishing assault weapons while children were present, and searching for a migrant who they claimed to be at the home (he wasn’t): This is Trump's America.  Trump’s mass deportation campaign is making American neighborhoods resemble a warzone. And it will only get worse if birthright citizenship is revoked by an unconstitutional executive order by our wannabe fascist president. With federal judges now limited in their ability to issue nationwide injunctions against Trump’s extremist agenda, state courts will play an even more critical role in protecting democracy — ensuring that rights guaranteed under state constitutions are not trampled by federal overreach. That is why Defend Our Courts is leading the effort to protect Democratic state Supreme Court judges from being ousted by Trump’s billionaire collaborators in upcoming elections, starting in Pennsylvania in 2025. We just unveiled our first ad that will be hitting the airwaves in PA and we are planning to launch this ad blitz on 4th of July. To reach all the voters we have identified, we need to raise $250,000 before midnight TONIGHT to fully fund this campaign. Can you chip in right now to help us get this ad in front of as many of the voters as possible and fight back against Trump’s fascist overreach?
