John,

Today, the Senate Judiciary Committee is beginning confirmation hearings
for Donald Trump’s radical right-wing nominee to fill Justice Ruth Bader
Ginsburg’s seat on the Supreme Court.

Trump and Mitch McConnell are pushing this nominee through a confirmation
process in the middle of both a presidential election and a COVID-19
outbreak on Capitol Hill that has infected multiple sitting senators.

They’re trying everything they can to rush their radical nominee on to the
Court before Election Day.

A majority of Americans believe this confirmation process should be
delayed until after this presidential election is concluded and the winner
is sworn in on January 20, 2021. They are right. We are a democracy, and
the people’s voice matters.

We’re in the middle of a national election, one in which 9 million
Americans have already voted. We must see this election through before any
seat on the Supreme Court is filled.

McConnell is hell-bent on rushing through this confirmation process in
order to secure a decades-long conservative majority on the Court that
will vote to overturn Roe v. Wade and Obamacare while consistently
stacking the deck for corporate interests.

Senate Democrats may not be able to outright stop this nomination, but if
they do everything they can to try — if they delay, delay, delay — then we
just might run out the clock and stop this nomination from moving forward.

Because let’s be clear here, if there’s one thing we’ve learned in 2020,
no one — absolutely no one — knows what’s going to happen next to change
the political landscape. Everything has changed week by week, day by day,
sometimes hour by hour, and what looks like a guaranteed win for Trump
today, could be SOL tomorrow.

Thank you for raising your voice today. We’ll continue doing everything we
can to stop McConnell’s outrageous power grab and win this election.
