Dear Friend,

Every day in America, the civil rights of Black Americans and other marginalized groups are under attack! 

Our nation is experiencing a sharp rise in violent white supremacy, domestic terrorism, hate crimes, and attacks on our voting rights—issues that were largely unaddressed for four years under the previous administration!

THIS WEEK your Senators have an opportunity to take a historic step to confront these widespread problems, demand justice, and confirm the nominations of Kristen Clarke as Head of the Civil Rights Division and Vanita Gupta as Assistant Attorney General at the Department of Justice.

We need leaders at the Department of Justice who will enforce the laws that exist keep us safe and make sure our civil rights are protected and hold those who violate them accountable. We need leaders who are committed to true and permanent change to our broken system. 

The career records of both Kristen Clarke and Vanita Gupta have shown them to be long-standing and effective champions for civil rights, justice, and fairness in our criminal justice and judicial systems. Both have experience litigating cases ranging from police misconduct, hate crimes, human trafficking, and voting rights to restoring the rights and liberties of the wrongfully convicted, those needing religious accommodation, persons with disabilities, and so much more!

Your voice is critical in this decision! Contact your Senators NOW to demand that they vote to confirm Vanita Gupta and Kristen Clarke to the Department of Justice! Take two minutes to write your Senators using this LINKhttps://p2a.co/vGB7QiV
