John: Trump’s judicial appointments are on a destructive tear, eroding fundamental democratic protections throughout the country. That’s why it’s vital Democrats in the Senate prioritize confirming judicial nominees during the lame duck session in order to restore balance to the courts.

Sign the petition to the U.S. Senate: The stakes are so high – continue confirming all judicial nominees who are and will be pending action by the full Senate before the end of this Congress.

There are currently more than 100 vacancies waiting to be filled, and right now, 25 lifetime nominees are awaiting full Senate action, 12 are awaiting committee votes, and at least five more will have hearings in time for the full Senate to act by the end of this Congress.

The work of strengthening our federal courts is critical. A judiciary that values and upholds equal justice and the protection of civil rights for all makes a difference in the lives of people and is one of the best ways we can protect and strengthen our democracy.

So, please, sign the petition today to tell Democrats in Congress how important judges are to the future of our democracy and that you're watching their leadership on judicial nominations during the lame duck.

Together, 

The Team at Demand Justice
