NOW is working very hard to be a voice for women's rights with our Senate leadership and keep the Supreme Court from becoming ultra-conservative. NOW members and activists from around the country have been at NOW headquarters in D.C. working 24/7.
The newspapers say there hasn't been enough "opposition." What happens on the Supreme Court is a reflection of either a completely weakened Democratic Party or the will of the American people. It is not looking good for those of us who hold dear the long-fought legal advancements made in women's, civil and worker's rights... Get on your phones immediately and call Senators Schumer and Clinton...
Dear Senator Schumer: Having closely followed the hearings for Samuel Alito's confirmation, I am writing to ask you to do everything you can to stop his confirmation. I believe his unquestioning support of executive power amounts to extraordinary circumstance... please work for a filibuster of Judge Alito's nomination, and should that fail, please vote "no" on his nomination. Thank you in advance for upholding the Constitution.
Senator Charles Schumer 202-224-6542; 212-486-7693 757 3rd Ave. #1702 NY, NY 10017 schumer.senate.gov (email)
Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton 202-224-4451;212-688-6262 780 3rd Ave. #2601 NY, NY 10017 clinton.senate.gov (email)
Let’s send a message to the DNC – Don’t Sell Us Out We Need You!
