John, we’re in a crucial moment in the fight to rebalance the Supreme Court.
Justice Breyer has officially announced his retirement. Now we must take this opportunity to confirm the first Black woman to the Supreme Court.
We’ve had 115 justices, but only 5 have been women, only 3 have been People of Color, and none have been a Black woman — to say this historic nomination is long overdue is an understatement.
But it's not just the who that matters, it's the how — and what comes next. We need to use the upcoming confirmation fight to highlight the damage the right-wing majority of this stolen Court is inflicting on our democracy.
Join me along with speakers from our friends at CPD Action, Be a Hero, and more today at 8 pm ET/5 pm PT to find out how you can help us confirm this historic nominee and galvanize support for Supreme Court expansion.
We deserve a Supreme Court that will protect and bolster the rights of the American people, not just the wealthy & powerful. Confirming this nominee is a crucial first step in this fight, but adding four more justices is how we build a Court that is truly reflective of this country.
I’ll see you there!
