Hey, John. We wanted to make sure you saw Obet’s note from earlier this week. Let’s be honest, this is the time when folks start giving up on their New Year’s Resolutions — but we’ve got an easy one for you!
Join us in a simple (but important!) New Year’s Resolution: Adding your name as a citizen co-sponsor of the Judiciary Act to expand the Supreme Court and save our democracy.
We’ve got a lot of momentum entering 2022, but that could be taken away at any moment. So we have to keep pushing every day until we are able to send the Judiciary Act to President Biden’s desk.
Thanks,
Take Back the Court Team

It's that time of year, John:
The local gym is a lot more busy, many of your friends are trying to eat healthier, and you yourself might be reorganizing every closet in your house.
It’s New Year's resolutions time!
Look, if you’re anything like me, choosing (and sticking to) a New Year’s resolution is HARD. So this year, I’m making my resolution something I know I’ll follow through with: Recommitting to the fight to expand the Supreme Court.
Our ability to tackle urgent national challenges like climate change, the future of voting and abortion rights, gun safety, and more depends on one thing: rebalancing the judiciary. That’s why the single most important thing we can do this year to preserve our democracy is expand the Supreme Court — and the way we’re going to do it is by passing the Judiciary Act, which will add four justices to the Court.
So please, join me in this New Year’s Resolution by adding your name to our petition to support passing the Judiciary Act in 2022!
2021 was a huge year for our movement. In less than a year since the introduction of the Judiciary Act, nearly 50 (!!!) members of Congress have sponsored the bill. And just last week, the Congressional Progressive Caucus endorsed the Judiciary Act, so we’re starting 2022 off with a bang!
This is all possible thanks to the hard work of Take Back the Court and every one of our grassroots supporters like you. Momentum has never been stronger for Court expansion.
But we can’t let up: Mitch McConnell and the far-right are starting to take notice of this groundswell of support for Court expansion, and they could launch attacks at any moment.
So let’s keep our feet on the gas. Join me in following through with this New Year’s Resolution to expand the Supreme Court: Add your name to support the Judiciary Act today!
Thanks,
Obet Montalvo

P.S. If you’ve already added your name, thank you SO much! Can you take the next step and forward this email to three of your friends and invite them to join you in this fun (and important!) New Year’s resolution?
