[ [link removed] ]SIGN NOW: Clarence Thomas must resign from the Supreme Court
immediately or else be impeached.

Dear MoveOn member,

After the right-wing-rigged Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last
week—effectively taking away abortion rights and the right to privacy
that's been considered legal precedent for the past 50 years—local and
national press outlets are covering reform of the Supreme Court like never
before.^1 

[ [link removed] ]We won't go back. That's why nearly ONE MILLION MoveOn members have
signed the petition calling on Clarence Thomas to either resign or be
impeached. Will you take a minute and add your name too?

And as if the ruling on Roe is not enough, Justice Clarence Thomas—who
sided with the majority on overturning Roe—made it clear what's next: to
overturn high court rulings that established LGBTQ+ rights, marriage
equality and contraception rights.^2

Thomas's own ties with Big Money's right-wing organizations and his
wife's, Ginni Thomas, leading role in right-wing organizations (especially
her efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election) have been well
documented.^3 For decades, Thomas has refused to step back from cases that
involve his and his wife's interests. Thomas's participation in the
Supreme Court case on this matter, and a slew of others, is only the
latest example of his severely compromised sense of impartiality and
morality. [ [link removed] ]Thomas never should have been confirmed for the court. Now,
it is clearer than ever that he must resign—or Congress must investigate,
reveal what he knew and when he knew it, and impeach him.

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas should either resign or be
impeached.

Now is the time to keep up the pressure. We cannot allow this to be
business as usual. Justice Thomas has a history of outrageous, abusive,
and immoral actions—and now that it's clear he was willing to use his
power to attempt to conceal his wife's role in Trump's 2020 coup attempt,
he needs to go. [ [link removed] ]Add your name to the petition to join hundreds of
thousands of MoveOn members who agree: Clarence Thomas must go.

Thomas's failure to recuse himself warrants immediate investigation and
heightened alarm. And it's only the latest in a long history of conflicts
of interest in the service of a right-wing agenda and mixing his powerful
role with his conservative political activism. He has shown he cannot be
an impartial justice and is more concerned with covering up his wife's
coup attempts than in the health of the Supreme Court.

He must resign—or Congress must immediately investigate and impeach.
