Action: 4 Apr 2017

Call to Action: Reach out! Big Push!

Call or email or text your friends, family, or relatives in states with Republican senators:

Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming.

Ask them to call their senators to urge them to oppose “the nuclear option” for Gorsuch, maintaining the 60-vote threshold for Supreme Court nominations. The vote for Gorsuch is on Friday (4/7).

Sample script: 

My name is _________ and I am constituent, zip code __________.

I am calling to urge Senator ____________ to oppose “the nuclear option” for Gorsuch and maintaining the 60-vote threshold for Supreme Court nominations. 

The nuclear option will permanently alter the nature of the Senate and Supreme Court nominations and it is too important to change. 

All previous judges have been able to get a 60-vote threshold and the president should nominate someone who will be able to meet that threshold. 

Thank you for your time.

They can call 1-844-USA-0234 (1-844-872-0234) – enter their zip code and they will automatically be connected to their senators (press * to be forwarded to the other representative).

This morning I sent the following emails to Senators Wicker and Cochran:

Will you answer just one question for me?  When are you going to stand-up and put our Country before your party?

45 is under investigation by the FBI and until this Russia question is answered, no one needs to be confirmed to the Supreme Court.  

I am expecting you to stand-up for our Country.  If you can't do that, you need to resign.
