PFAW Member,
Don’t miss out on PFAW’s biggest event of the Supreme Court fight this fall!
TODAY at 2 PM ET (1 PM CT / 11 AM PT) PFAW and our coalition partners go LIVE on Facebook to protest the Senate Republicans’ sham confirmation process.
Join us for our digital rally to tell our senators: No confirmation before inauguration! >>
In the middle of a global pandemic and as the 2020 election has already begun, Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell are trying to force through the nomination of anti-health care, anti-reproductive rights, anti-workers’ rights judge Amy Coney Barrett for a lifetime seat on the Supreme Court.
Mere days after the election, the Court is set to hear a case that could decide the future of protections for people with preexisting conditions and our access to health care. And we’ve already seen Trump calling for Barrett’s swift confirmation so that he has three justices in his pocket if he decides to challenge the results of our fair and free election.
We know that Barrett is being put on the Supreme Court to end protections for people with preexisting conditions, overturn Roe v. Wade, and rubber-stamp Trump’s attempts to hijack the 2020 election and destroy our democracy.
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham has scheduled hearings to start on Barrett’s nomination to start this Monday, October 12. That’s why we’re going live today with activists, advocates, and senators to discuss why this nomination must not move forward.
Speakers will include Senators Chuck Schumer, Elizabeth Warren, Tammy Baldwin, and Maggie Hassan, as well as PFAW’s own President, Ben Jealous. These speakers along with advocates and activists will gather to show Senate Republicans how dangerous their actions are – and to discuss what we’re doing during the hearings to keep the fight going.
Help us spread the word by sharing the rally on social media – or if you don’t have a social media account, ask family or friends who do have accounts to share for you! And make sure to post your message for senators in the comments, and we’ll read them live on air during the rally.
RSVP now for today’s No Confirmation Before Inauguration: #WeDissent Digital Rally! >>
We can’t wait to see you there! This fight is far from over.
In community,
– Meg, Digital Content Manager
