Judge Amy Coney Barrett was unanimously voted out of the Senate Judiciary Committee by a 12-0 tally. The vote was along party lines with 12 Republicans voting in favor of the Barrett nomination while the 10 Democratic committee members boycotted the vote. On Monday, October 26, the Senate is expected to vote on the confirmation of Judge Barrett.
It's urgent that you call and ask your senators to confirm Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the U.S. Supreme Court.
The analysis of research on Judge Barrett demonstrates she has a constitutional philosophy of a limited judiciary. This means she opposes judicial activism –– whereby judges act as a super-legislature, writing laws from the bench. Judge Barrett has said, "What we want in a Justice, [is] someone who applies the law, who follows the law where it goes and doesn't decide simply on the basis of partisan preference."
Your senators need to be encouraged to stand strong against the coming liberal tsunami of intimidation and hate and confirm Judge Barrett to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Take action now. Call your senators and urge them to confirm Judge Amy Barrett to the U.S. Supreme Court.
