PFAW Member,
We're now getting reports that, even though Amy Coney Barrett made a mockery of her hearings by refusing to answer even the most basic questions, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is trying to force a final vote on Trump's nominee to the Supreme Court one week from today, on Monday, October 26!
This is outrageous. McConnell and his Republican allies are forcing through this confirmation even though a majority of Americans want them to wait until after the next inauguration.
We cannot let up the pressure now.
Join PFAW, advocacy experts, health care activists, and Senators Murray, Casey, Hirono, and Cardin to discuss next steps in our campaign to tell the Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee that this is our court!
RSVP NOW for our digital town hall TOMORROW, October 20, at 2:30 PM ET! >>
Hope to see you there!
– Sarah, PFAW

PFAW Member,
In the wake of the sham, rushed hearings for the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court, we’re all feeling a little bit of whiplash. To break it all down for you – and to talk about our next steps as a community – we’re hosting a digital event with Senators, advocacy experts, and health care activists.
Trump’s nomination of Judge Barrett to the Supreme Court threatens our health care, our reproductive rights, and our civil rights. And we’re not done fighting to protect ourselves and our loved ones.
That’s why People For the American Way has partnered with the Alliance for Justice, Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, National Education Association, and Planned Parenthood Action Fund to host this digital town hall. We know you’ve got questions – and we’ve got the experts who can answer them.
Mark your calendars NOW for Tuesday, October 20th at 2:30 PM ET (1:30 PM CT / 11:30 AM PT)!
We’ll be joined by Senators Patty Murray (D-WA), Bob Casey (D-PA), Mazie Hirono (D-HI), and Ben Cardin (D-MD) as well as health care activists whose lives would be most deeply affected by Judge Barrett’s confirmation and other special guests, to discuss last week’s hearings and what we’re going to do next.
The health care rights community is ready for a fight, and we want you by our side the whole time.
Join us for our digital town hall and submit questions to be asked LIVE during the event! >>
We’ve been saying this a lot lately, but your activism means more now than it ever has – lives are at stake, and we need to make sure that the Republicans forcing this nomination through are as acutely aware of that as we are.
I hope to see you there on Tuesday, October 20 at 2:30 PM ET!
In community,
– Sarah, PFAW
