| Pamela, Remember: Our country was founded with the intention of taking power out of the hands of the elite. Though America fell short of that promise for much of its history, we have marched steadily over generations towards expanding our democracy, and finally coming close to the multi-racial democracy we were promised. Unfortunately, the elites don't want to share power unless it keeps them entrenched. So today's Republican party has set off a doom loop of gerrymandering, court-packing, and voter suppression laws designed to disenfranchise the majority and let a small, white minority rule. We need to reverse the momentum and expand our democracy. That means restoring balance to the illegitimate Supreme Court. SIGN NOW to demand that Congress passes the Judiciary Act of 2021 and add four seats to the Supreme Court, undoing its theft by the GOP. Just this week, the Court defended voter suppression laws in Arizona, and overturned donor disclosure laws to make it easier for billionaires to buy politicians. The Majority on this court was appointed by Presidents who were elected with fewer votes than their opponents. It is a betrayal of the will of the People. Democratic leaders have dismissed the Judiciary Act, but this week's rulings make it clear: Without court reform, our democracy will wither away and die. We cannot surrender. Sign now: Declare independence from this illegitimate Supreme Court and demand that Congress pass the Judiciary Act and undo the theft of the courts! We're going to live on. We're going to survive. (I hope) In solidarity, Progress America |
