"Dial (202) 224-3121. If you don't already have this number memorized or logged as a contact, have it tattooed on your body where you can see it. Afraid of needles? Use henna for a temporary tattoo. You're going to need this number until Congress breaks before the mid-term elections. ~ 3 ~ The White House's occupant was supposed to announce today the nominee to replace Justice Anthony Kennedy. Call your senators and tell them to refuse to hold hearings on this nomination."
"If your senator(s) are Democrats or Independents, tell them they must deny a president who is under investigation any nominee to a lifetime seat as long as there is a cloud over the presidency. If they cannot fend off a Judiciary Committee hearing, insist they do not vote for any nominee who seeks to overturn Roe v. Wade. Nor should they confirm a justice who will not recuse themselves from any case against Trump or his campaign arising from Department of Justice investigations,"
Memorize and log (202) 224-3121 to contact senators immediately about nominations. Urge senators to refuse hearings on a Supreme Court nominee until after midterm elections. Ask Republican senators to apply the same timing argument used previously by Mitch McConnell. Ask Democratic and independent senators to block any nominee while the president remains under investigation. Insist that confirmed justices would not overturn Roe v. Wade, must recuse from cases involving the president or campaign, and must not endorse presidential immunity beyond the law. Use provided call scripts and follow up on related DOJ nomination concerns.
