The Supreme Court is back for a new term, and there’s a lot at stake.
Momentum for adding seats is growing every day — but we need your help.

John,
In just two weeks, on October 26, our growing movement for Court expansion will gather on the steps of the Supreme Court to make it clear: the American people will not sit by and watch Amy Coney Barrett, Brett Kavanaugh, and their cronies dismantle our democracy.
This fight couldn’t be more urgent. The Court’s extremist far-right majority is set to rule on the future of abortion access and whether or not states can make their own gun control laws this term. Kicking the can down the road is not an option. That’s why we need your help.
The call to expand the Court is growing louder every day. As Senator Tina Smith noted during our panel at Netroots Nation last week, inaction is not an option. But, time is running out. Your contribution to Take Back the Court will help us show our elected officials that we will not accept their inaction. It’s time to step up.
Contribute $5 to Take Back the Court today. On October 26, let’s build a coalition so strong that they hear us in the Supreme Court, Congress, and the White House.
The conservative supermajority on the Court was busy this summer. In the span of 70 days, the Court attacked voting rights, workers’ rights, reproductive rights, asylum-seekers, and struggling renters.
And yet, our elected leaders in the Biden Administration and Congress are dragging their feet even though the solution for this steady degradation of our rights is written in the Constitution.
30+ Members of Congress have co-sponsored the Judiciary Act of 2021 which would add four seats to the Court. The rest of their colleagues need to know that their constituents expect them to take action to protect our democracy. Will you help us spread the word before it’s too late?
Contribute $5 to Take Back the Court today. We’re running out of time.
Two-thirds of Americans weren’t alive the last time the Court had a majority appointed by the Democratic Party that won seven of the last eight presidential popular votes. Instead, six judges — the majority of whom were appointed by Republican presidents who lost the popular vote — control all of our futures.
It’s time to take back our Court and our democracy. Thank you for joining us,
Obet Montalvo
Digital Manager, Take Back the Court
