PFAW Member,

One of Trump's worst judicial nominees, Steven Menashi, was just passed
out of the Senate Judiciary Committee on a party-line vote. Republicans
reported him out DESPITE Menashi's deeply troubling record on LGBTQ+
equality, women's rights, the rights of lower-income families, immigrant
rights, and respect for the Muslim community.

demand that your senators vote "NO" when his nomination gets a full vote
in the senate>>

Menashi's nomination may seem par for the course for the Trump
administration and Republicans in the senate, but what is especially
troubling about Menashi's nomination is the court which he'd sit on. The
Second Circuit Court of Appeals is one of the nation's most influential
courts – one that recently delivered a blow to Trump's attempt to shield
his tax records from criminal investigations taking place in New York.

It's no wonder that Trump would want one of his nominees to sit on that
court!

It was also just reported that Menashi helped to construct an ILLEGAL
scheme at the U.S. Department of Education to deny any debt relief for
thousands of students swindled by a for-profit college. In his plan,
Menashi worked with Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos to illegally use
the private Social Security data of defrauded borrowers. Thankfully, a
federal judge rightfully ruled that this practice violated federal privacy
laws and the practice has since been stopped.

This is someone who is supposed to be a fair arbiter of the law?!? I don't
think so.

Menashi's nomination to serve on the court is an insult to millions of
Americans across the country. It's clear that Trump and his Republican
enablers in Congress want someone who will put the needs of the rich and
powerful over the needs of everyday Americans.

Thank you,

- Zach, PFAW
