It’s a historic day, John.
Today, President Biden announced that he has nominated Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to fill the soon to be vacant seat of Justice Stephen Breyer.
If confirmed, Kentanji Brown Jackson would be the first Black woman to serve on the Supreme Court of the United States: For women, for Black people, and especially for Black women, this representation is necessary and long overdue.
Women’s March celebrates President Biden’s pick not simply because of what Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson represents but because of who she is: a brilliant legal mind, a jurist with a proven record of protecting the rights of the most vulnerable, and, critically, a public defender by training, the first ever to rise to the Supreme Court.
Women’s March is prepared to organize and fight to ensure Judge Jackson is confirmed swiftly. Will you chip in $5 to support our organizing team’s efforts? This is a critical opportunity for us to build our feminist future and appoint a Justice who will defend women’s rights to the Supreme Court.
John, during the Trump administration, we watched as he and his cronies packed the courts with extremist right-wing judges. We witnessed how Mitch McConnell pulled every dirty trick in the book to confirm a conservative judge to replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg — jumping on the phone with Trump within hours of her death.
The GOP is ruthless, John. We must be prepared to push back and organize like our lives and livelihoods depend on it — because they do. Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson would make an incredible addition to the Supreme Court in any day and age —but at this moment in time, she’s incomparable. With so much on the line — including the reversal of Roe v. Wade and the potential end of abortion as we know it — President Biden and Senate Democrats must act swiftly.
Women’s March is ready to mobilize and put pressure on President Biden and the Senate to appoint Justice Jackson to the Supreme Court. Will you chip in $5 right now to send a powerful message today that our movement is ready to fight to transform our Supreme Court?
Together,
Tamika Middleton
Managing Director, Women's March
