John,
Lindsey Graham’s comments on Ketanji Brown Jackson’s recent nomination underscore exactly why we must fight as hard as we can to Save the Senate this year.
“If we get back the Senate... if we were in charge, she would not have been before this committee. You would've had somebody more moderate than this." - Lindsey Graham at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.
As they did to President Obama over the course of his two terms, Graham and other Republicans even made it known that they would move to prevent President Biden’s judicial nominees from advancing if they take power in the Senate come this November.
There’s no doubt about it, the front lines of the battle for democracy are in the Senate right now.
That's why Democracy for America is focused on supporting candidates who are fighting to flip Republican-held seats and build progressive power in the Senate.

Just imagine if Democrats didn’t have the Senate majority this year…
Mitch McConnell would have announced that there would be no hearing or vote -- not even a cordial meeting -- on any Supreme Court nominee that President Biden presents… and all of the Republicans in the Senate Judiciary Committee would have approved of this obstruction.
We know that Republicans undercut President Obama’s constitutional right to nominate a Supreme Court Justice, so there would be nothing stopping them from doing it to President Biden if they regain power.
This only underscores how important it is for us to continue the groundwork to not just hold the senate majority, but to Save the Senate by building progressive power.
