Dear Friend,

One of the most important political fights in American history is happening right now. I want you to know what’s at stake.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was a principled defender of justice for all. Defying her last wish that the next president install her replacement, Trump plans to announce Amy Coney Barrett as his pick for the Supreme Court. If confirmed, your right to vote, your right to affordable healthcare, your right to worship, even your right to be with your family are at serious risk — for decades to come.

Friend, I’m asking for your support to save our Court and protect our rights.

The stakes are particularly high for American Muslims. The Supreme Court has the power to decide which religions are able to freely practice their faith and whether the president can tear families apart based on their religion, as Trump continues to do under the Muslim Ban. The confirmation of a third Trump-nominated justice will lead to another solid vote against religious freedom affecting future generations. Learn more about these long-term implications in our Fact Sheet.

That’s why our team is working around the clock — on all fronts — to defend our democracy. We need your support at this critical time to continue:

• Partnering with our allies to strategize and implement a robust, national civil rights response.
   
• Educating members of Congress, our allies and the public about how this nomination will affect American Muslims and our civil rights.
   
• Activating our communities across the country through digital organizing to ensure our voices are heard.
   

We are often the only Muslim voice at these tables. Friend, please donate whatever you can to keep us there.

This is the people’s Court. We won’t stop fighting until it represents all of us.
