PFAW Member,
The American people have already begun voting in the 2020 elections, and they had been doing so even before the passing of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg prompted Senate Republicans to jumpstart their egregiously unfair push to force through Donald Trump’s extreme anti-health care nominee. Under no circumstances should the Senate consider a nominee until after the inauguration of the next president in 2021.
But even though the Senate is in recess until October 19 – due to the COVID-19 outbreak that we already know has infected the president, several White House staff, and a handful Republican senators – Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham are recklessly and ruthlessly pushing ahead with Trump nominee Amy Coney Barrett’s Senate confirmation hearing, scheduled for NEXT WEEK!
We’re organizing a week of action, culminating in a national virtual rally this Friday, to show Senate Republicans that we’re not going to sit by quietly while they ram through a nominee who would take away health care protections in the middle of a pandemic and threaten our fundamental rights for a generation.
Please take these two actions TODAY to keep building the movement:
RSVP now for our #WeDissent virtual rally – this Friday, 10/9 at 2:00pm ET – to tell Senate Republicans that there must be NO confirmation before inauguration! >>
Keep hammering the message on social media! Find sharable images and samples in our toolkit here >>
The most important thing we can do now is to show Senate Republicans how many people their actions will harm – and to do that, we urgently need your help. Working together is the best weapon we have against Senate Republicans’ attempts to strip us of our health care rights and other vital protections.
Keep an eye out for more ways to get involved this week. Thank you for your activism – your work has never been as important as it is now!
In community,
– Meg, Digital Content Manager

Radical Right extremists are trying to turn back the clock on a century of advances in civil rights, women’s rights, workers’ rights, the social safety net and more… With Donald Trump in the White House, they’re waging an all-out assault on the fundamental pillars of our country – democracy, checks and balances, a fair and independent judicial branch, and core values like fairness, equality, and justice for all.
PFAW is fighting back every day with:
✔ Grassroots organizing
✔ Lobbying and advocacy
✔ Research and education
✔ Voter mobilization
✔ And more…
But we can’t do this vital work without the robust grassroots financial support of our members and activists.
