The nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court is a threat to our fundamental rights. Join the California Democratic Party in fighting like hell to stop it. ADD YOUR NAME »

Dear John,

For more than 5 months, Mitch McConnell blocked meaningful COVID relief legislation in the United States Senate.

But when Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away last Friday, Mitch McConnell wasted no time.

He immediately announced that the United States Senate would ignore Justice Ginsburg’s dying wish -- as well as the precedent he, himself, set in 2016 -- by ramming through a replacement justice in the middle of a Presidential election.

Once confirmed, Amy Coney Barrett would have the power to roll back our country’s laws on reproductive choice, affordable and quality healthcare and climate protections for decades. We can’t let that happen.
DEMAND BETTER» It’s clear Republicans are going all-in on stacking the court with young, ultra-conservative justices so they can overturn Roe v. Wade, gut the Affordable Care Act, and ram their unpopular legislative agenda through the courts.

Let’s take a quick look at Judge Barrett’s record:

In 2017, Judge Barrett wrote it was “illegitimate” for the Supreme Court to uphold the Affordable Care Act, arguing the court was “distort[ing] the Constitution”
In 2016, she expressed disagreement with Brown v. Board of Education, the historic Supreme Court Ruling which desegregated our schools
In 2012, and throughout her career, Judge Barrett has made it clear that she thinks it is a “grave infringement on religious liberty” to require employers to include birth control in their healthcare plans.

The stakes are clear and time is short.

Please add your name to demand that the next President select Justice Ginsburg’s replacement. We cannot allow Amy Coney Barrett to be confirmed to the Supreme Court.
