Confirm Biden's judicial nominees to protect democratic norms

To: Sen. Schumer

From: A constituent in Brooklyn, NY

November 20

Confirming President Biden's highly qualified, pro-democracy judicial nominees is crucial before Republicans take control of the Senate. The Senate has confirmed over 200 nominees, but many vacancies remain unfilled. These lifetime federal court seats cannot be allowed to go to Trump's extremist picks who will erode democratic norms from the bench. Sen. Schumer must demonstrate leadership by keeping the Senate in session as long as necessary - nights, weekends, holidays - to overcome procedural hurdles and confirm all of Biden's nominees. Protecting the judiciary from MAGA loyalists preserves our democracy and rights. Every failure to take a vote is a vote for Trump. The urgency cannot be overstated given threats from Trumpist authoritarianism. Sen. Schumer's commitment to exhaust avenues to confirm pro-democracy judges before year's end determines the judiciary's fate for decades.
