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

***********************

PFAW Member,

Ruth Bader Ginsburg, American hero, has passed at the age of 87.

According to NPR, just days before her death, she dictated the following
statement to her granddaughter: "My most fervent wish is that I will not
be replaced until a new president is installed."

As you know, the ONLY just course for the president and the U.S. Senate at
this point is to wait until after the election and the swearing in of our
new president, if we have one, to consider any new nominee for Justice
Ginsburg’s Supreme Court seat.

The People should decide who replaces this giant presence on the Court.

I know you’ll join us in mourning the loss of Justice Ginsburg, whose
spirit, intellect, patriotism, and commitment to constitutional values
have left an indelible and profound mark on not only the Court but the
entire country.

We will be in touch in the coming days with more about what this means for
the Supreme Court, the election, and the future of the American Way.

And while we mourn, know that Mitch McConnell has already put out a
statement saying, “President Trump’s nominee will receive a vote on the
floor of the United States Senate.”

We will NOT let that happen – the People need to and will be heard.

Thank you for standing with PFAW and for allowing PFAW to stand by you in
these hard times.

-- Ben Jealous, President
