Friends, did you hear that Mitch McConnell said he would "absolutely" support filling a Supreme Court vacancy in 2019 or 2020?
|
This is the same Mitch McConnell who said his "proudest moment" in the Senate was blocking the confirmation of President Obama's Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland – stalling for months on end so he could fill the Supreme Court with judges cherry-picked by right-wing extremists.
|
McConnell is doing everything he can to shape our nation’s highest court for generations to come. Just moments ago, we learned the Supreme Court will take up a case that could put access to safe, legal abortion on the line – and another right-wing Supreme Court justice would even further jeopardize the future of reproductive health care and our other shared progressive values.
|
And friends, it's not only the Supreme Court that we have to worry about. McConnell is manipulating the rules so he can confirm dozens upon dozens of far-right ideologues to the federal bench.
|
We can’t let our nation’s federal judges become foot soldiers for the Trump-McConnell agenda. We need another 2,000 concerned Americans to speak out before midnight tonight:

Are you worried about Mitch McConnell's takeover of our nation's courts?
