Trump's Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett told the Senate Judiciary Committee today that "she would not discriminate on the basis of sexual preference."

As the Internet exploded, Democratic Sen. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii schooled Judge Barrett: "Sexual preference is an offensive and outdated term. It is used by anti-LGBTQ activists to suggest that sexual orientation is a choice. It is not. Sexual orientation is a key part of a person's identity."

This is still one more reason why it is so important for Democrats to win the Senate and strip Republican senators of their power to confirm bigots to the highest court in the land.

Will you join thousands of PCCC members who have rushed emergency donations to Democratic Senate candidates, many of whom are are on the verge of DEFEATING sitting Republican senators?

Senator Hirono continued, telling Judge Barrett: "If it is your view that sexual orientation is merely a preference, The LGBTQ community should be rightly concerned whether you would uphold their constitutional right to marry. I don't think your use of the term 'sexual preference' was an accident."

Donate to win back the Senate today.
