Friends --
We need to talk about the Supreme Court.
The Senate Judiciary Committee just jammed through the nomination of Judge Amy Coney Barrett in a blatantly partisan, one-sided process less than two weeks before a Presidential election.
Let me be clear: I will be voting NO on Judge Barrett's nomination on the Senate Floor.
Protecting Virginians' health care is at the top of my reasons for voting this way. The Supreme Court is set to consider the Trump administration's lawsuit to strike down the Affordable Care Act and its protections for people with pre-existing conditions, with no replacement, just a few weeks after the election. We simply cannot afford a Supreme Court Justice like Judge Barrett, who has openly attacked the ACA's constitutionality. And frankly, I can't think of a worse way to honor the legacy of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg than to replace her on the court with someone so openly hostile to the Constitution's protection of a woman's right to choose.
Justice Ginsburg was someone I respected and admired, and I know she was a role model for many Virginians. It is just shameful to see the future of the seat she held be determined by Donald Trump and Senate Republicans, instead of the American people.
But even if they deprive the American people of their say on this Supreme Court seat, the future of the Supreme Court is still on the ballot on November 3rd. It is absolutely critical that we flip the Senate and send Joe Biden to the White House. So we need to channel the pain and frustration that so many of us are feeling right now into action. That is how we honor Justice Ginsburg's memory and continue to pursue the notions of justice and quality to which she dedicated her life. With just 13 days until Election Day, I ask you to keep up the fight and join me in making our voices heard on November 3rd.
Sincerely,
Mark Warner
