Action 1: Save Our Courts Webinar 4/10
Last November, Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee -- led by Sen. Durbin -- authorized subpoenas for Harlan Crow and Leonard Leo as part of the committee’s investigation into SCOTUS corruption. Unsurprisingly, Crow and Leo immediately responded that they would not comply.
It has now been almost four months with no movement.
That’s why we’re calling on Senator Durbin to use his power as Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee to go past authorization and issue subpoenas immediately -- continuing the investigation into Clarence Thomas’ unethical behavior. We need to let Durbin know that the next steps are long past due and it’s time to take action now.
This is a critical time for Durbin to take action. During his presidency, Donald Trump installed over two hundred judges to the federal bench, including three Supreme Court justices. Meanwhile, President Biden has nominated many qualified judges to the lower courts who have been blocked by Republicans under antiquated procedural rules.
We must do everything in our power to ensure that, as Republicans continue to stonewall judicial appointments, we do not allow corruption to go unchecked in the Supreme Court and fight to restore legitimacy to the judiciary. Join us.

Action 2: Kenosha Canvassing Saturday
Rested up from the Chicago Election? Canvass in Kenosha on Saturady, March 30, to GOTV for Wisconsin's April 2 election.
Kenosha is sooo close, only 70 minutes away on a Saturday AM. Our neighbors could use our energy to defeat local MAGA; continue to build toward reelecting Senator Tammy Baldwin and President Biden. And who knows, perhaps flip Wisconsin’s Congressional District 1 in November!
Last cycle we helped Kenosha go Blue for Judge Janet Protasiewicz. And now Wisconsin has legislative maps that will eventually really reflect the voters of Wisconsin. We all remember the 2016 and 2020 Presidential elections in Wisconsin: our winning margin was a handful of votes per precinct. We can help maintain or grow that difference! Defend Senator Baldwin, keep President Biden, and defeat local MAGA on school boards and as county supervisors.
Join the Canvass in Kenosha on Saturday, March 30!
