The end of term for the Supreme Court was filled with controversial decisions that will have a lasting effect on the American people. With no concern for how their decisions will harm the American people, the Supreme Court's conservative majority repeatedly decided against the best interest of those whom they are supposed to serve. Gun safety, separation of church and state, the government's ability to fight climate change, and of course abortion rights were all significantly weakened by the radical decisions the Trump Court released this term. 

These decisions will harm people across the country, and are the direct result of Senate Republicans packing the bench with justices that will further their conservative agenda. This compromised Court chose to leave us to fend for ourselves, but we are not helpless. The Senate must act. If our nation's highest court will not protect us, we must ensure our lower courts are filled with judges committed to protecting the rights of all of us, not just the wealthy and powerful.  

We have a duty — to justice, to the Constitution, and to each other — to fight back! Sign our petition calling for the Senate to take back our courts by filling every lower court vacancy. We need judges on all levels that will protect our rights. The Senate must move to fill all lower court vacancies this year! 

PETITION 

In light of the Supreme Court's hyper-partisan end of term decisions, we are calling on the Senate to take back our courts by filling every federal judicial vacancy with nominees committed to equal justice and protecting our rights. 

The end of term for the Supreme Court was filled with controversial decisions that will have a lasting effect on the American people. Lower courts are our next line of defense against this activist court, and they must be prioritized. 

There are over 100 judicial vacancies, and the Senate must move to fill every one of them by the end of 2022 with judges committed to equal justice.
