It’s time to show Susan Collins that there are consequences for giving a Supreme Court seat to a far-right judge with multiple credible accusations of sexual assault against him, team.
Susan Collins showed her true colors when she not only supported Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination last year, but took an active role in Trump and McConnell’s scheme to take over the Court, giving a speech in support of Kavanaugh that was a cornerstone of the GOP’s sham confirmation process. Even though more Americans believed Christine Blasey Ford’s testimony than Brett Kavanaugh’s defensive rambling, Collins proudly chose to side with the men antagonizing victims of sexual assault, lending her credibility to a cruel, backwards movement to discredit women. It was a disgusting piece of political theater that we’ll never forget.
That’s why Demand Justice launched a new TV ad this week. We’re helping Amy share her story with her fellow Mainers and with Susan Collins, because when senators vote against their constituents’ interests, they need to hear from their constituents. Watch the ad, then donate to help keep it on the air.
The GOP rushed Kavanaugh through a sham confirmation process: the FBI didn’t bother to interview the classmates who came forward to corroborate Deborah Ramirez’s story, no one got clear answers on how up to $200,000 in debt was magically paid off in the year leading up to Kavanaugh’s nomination, and the public still hasn’t seen key records from Kavanaugh’s time in the Bush administration. Susan Collins knew all of this when she announced her decision to confirm Kavanaugh to a lifetime appointment on the Supreme Court, but she put her relationship with McConnell and Trump over Mainers’ needs.
We need to make it clear that Susan Collins’ vote for Kavanaugh was a betrayal by getting this ad in front of as many Mainers as possible — your donation today will help keep the pressure on Susan Collins and other Republicans who supported Kavanaugh, McConnell, and Trump over their own constituents.
