People For Member,
In the past year, dozens of court cases across the country have had major
impacts on our environmental regulations. Trump’s far-right judges tried
every avenue possible to enable corporations to abuse our environment and
harm the communities most affected by climate change.
The environment is one of many major areas where courts stacked with
far-right Trump judges pose a major threat, but with President Biden’s
nominations to the federal courts, we have a real chance to stem the tide
of damage they can cause. However, we need to get them on the bench before
our environment is irreparably harmed.
[ [link removed] ]Celebrate Earth Day by urging the Senate to quickly confirm President
Biden's Circuit Court nominees to stem the tide of bad rulings from Trump
judges that harm the environment! >>
Climate justice is one of the most pressing issues of our time, and we
urgently need to confirm federal judges who understand the
intersectionality of these issues.
President Biden has nominated three outstanding Black women for powerful
circuit court judgeships: Ketanji Brown Jackson for the D.C. Circuit
(which is often seen as a steppingstone to the Supreme Court), Candace
Jackson-Akiwumi for the Seventh Circuit, and Tiffany Cunningham for the
Federal Circuit.
These women are highly credentialed and accomplished; and they will also
bring to the bench a lived experience and perspective that is sorely
lacking from our federal courts. We need judges like these women, who
would put careful consideration into all cases that passed before them –
including those that involve environmental impacts, which
disproportionally affect underserved communities.
[ [link removed] ]Tell the Senate to act swiftly to confirm them to the federal
judiciary! >>
With experienced judges like Brown Jackson, Jackson-Akiwumi, and
Cunningham on the federal bench, we would have a real chance to counteract
rulings by Trump judges that would have terrible and lasting consequences
for our environment. And with our climate changing at an alarming rate, we
don’t have any time to waste.

In solidarity,
