John —

Last week, President Biden nominated Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court to fill the vacancy being left by Justice Breyer.

We’ve had 115 justices throughout the history of the Supreme Court. Not a single one of them has been a Black woman.

If confirmed, Judge Jackson — a former public defender currently serving on the U.S. Court of Appeals — would become the first.

But already, Senate Republicans — some of whom have even voted to confirm her to previous judicial appointments — are diminishing her qualifications and attacking her nomination.

We need grassroots Democrats to speak up and make it clear: Ketanji Brown Jackson is a supremely qualified judge who should be confirmed by the Senate without delay. Will you add your name to Barbara’s petition if you agree?

Thank you for taking action,
