BREAKING: Amy Coney Barrett

Dear MoveOn member, 

Moments ago, Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee voted unanimously to advance the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to a lifetime appointment to the U.S. Supreme Court, which would cement a 6-3 ultraconservative majority on the court.¹ Mitch McConnell has already shamelessly announced that the full Senate will to vote to confirm her by Monday.²

Like many progressives around the country, you're probably filled with rage. And you're wondering how we respond. Here's how: by dealing a decisive blow to the GOP at the ballot box.

If you've been waiting to get involved, this is the moment. If you've already been working hard, this is the time to dig deeper. Everything is on the line—and for generations. Chip in $3 right now to defeat Trump, flip the Senate, and save our democracy.

The ugly truth is that there is little we can do to stop this illegitimate nomination. That's because Mitch McConnell is willing to abuse his power in every way, shape, and form to advance his extremist agenda. 

But today is not a day for despair. It is a time for decisive action.

In just 12 days we have a chance to FINALLY defeat Trump and end Mitch McConnell's reign as Senate majority leader. In fact, four of the Republicans who just voted on this sham nomination—Lindsey Graham, Thom Tillis, Joni Ernst, and John Cornyn—are up for re-election this year.

And guess what? Each and every single one of them is in a razor-tight race.³ Together, we can sweep them out of office. 

With only 12 days until the election, we're on an absolutely urgent time crunch. Please, rush a $3 donation right now to defeat the GOP.

Thanks for all you do.
