Hello —
Ruth Bader Ginsburg was an icon, a trailblazer and one of the greatest people to ever grace our nation. Her death is a loss that will be felt for decades, and her life is one that will be celebrated for generations to come.
I wish this was a moment where we could mourn and reflect on everything Justice Ginsburg did in the fight for justice and equality for our nation, but it appears Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell are rushing to replace Justice Ginsburg as we speak.
That means our work has never been more important.
The Senate must not confirm a new Supreme Court Justice until after a new President is sworn in next year. Senator Cory Gardner must uphold the commitment he set more than four years ago and allow the President elected in November to make this decision.
I am asking you to sign my urgent petition demanding Mitch McConnell and Cory Gardner not confirm any nominee to the Supreme Court until after our next President is sworn in. We need to pressure them to do the right thing and let the voters decide.
The next several weeks are going to be some of the most consequential in American history. There is too much — health care, reproductive rights, civil rights, and more — on the line. We need you now.
Thank you,
— John
