Actions You Can Take Today
Action 1: Tell Senator Durbin: Don't Give McConnell A Chance To Block Biden's Judges
Action 2: Phone banks this week
Action 1: Tell Durbin to Confirm Biden’s Judges
The possibility is looming that Mitch McConnell will regain control of the Senate -- and then Republicans would block President Biden from filling open judicial vacancies. So we have to #FillEverySeat now.
But Democrats are on track to leave 60 judicial vacancies open at the end of this year, so we're calling on Senate Judiciary Chair, Senator Dick Durbin, to push beyond current norms and recent practices and schedule more hearings, with even more nominees to #FillEverySeat.
Sign the Demand Justice + Indivisible Chicago petition to tell Senator Durbin: Fill Every Seat
Action 2: Phone Banks This Week
There are TWO opportunities to phone bank this week to help build our 2022 progressive coalition!
TODAY - Phone bank for Lauren Underwood at 6 p.m. We backed Lauren Underwood in her first run for Congress, in 2018, and since the she has been making us proud and impressing her constituents. But her district has been redrawn to include many voters who are not familiar with her accomplishments. And the the Rs will be coming after her this fall with all the dark money and name-calling they can muster. Help us get her story out in our weekly phone bank.
TOMORROW - Wisconsin phone bank at 4 p.m. We've teamed up with WisDems to reach voters who lean Democratic but don't always vote. We'll be emphasizing the importance of voting in 2022, encouraging them to apply for mail-in ballots, answering questions when we can, and directing them to WisDems' excellent voter hotline.
