Stop SCOTUS, Save Roe!: The Senate Must Refuse Nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh Statement by NOW President Toni Van Pelt 07.10.2018
By naming Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the U.S. Supreme Court, Donald Trump has set the table for a vote on repealing Roe v. Wade. That was the promise Trump made during the presidential campaign. In his final debate with Hillary Clinton, Trump said the Supreme Court would automatically overturn Roe once he became president, because I am putting pro-life judges on the Court.
Trump outsourced his Supreme Court nomination screening process to the radical Federalist Society, a group started during the Reagan era to move U.S. courts to the right. Its leader, right-wing activist Leonard Leo, has called abortion a threat to human life, and conservative activist Ed Whelan has said, No one has been more dedicated to the enterprise of building a Supreme Court that will overturn Roe v. Wade than the Federalist Societys Leonard Leo.
Now, Leo, the Federalist Society and the network of anti-abortion extremists, billionaires and committees have gotten their wish. After pushing Neil Gorsuch to the top of the pile last year, they are gearing up for a repeat performance now.
We cant let them succeed. Mitch McConnell stole a Supreme Court seat by refusing to consider Barack Obamas nominee, Merrick Garland, and now Senate Republicans are at it again. We are on the threshold of the most consequential Congressional elections in modern times. Voters are going to the polls to express their views on who should be setting the agenda in Congress and whose values should be reflected on the bench. We call on the Senate to refuse to take up this nomination until the people they represent have voiced their opinions. Contact

NOW says, “keep them DEAD BABIES COMING!!!!!!!!!!!”
Did the word “trimester” exist before Roe v Wade?
Then the GOP wins Senate seats this November and they’ll say “it doesn’t count, North Dakota, Missouri and West Virginia are too backwards, we won the national popular vote if you combine all the Senate races!”
Well show them! If they dont refuse to confirm him, well hold our breath! See?? MmMmMmmmmMMMMMMMPHHHH
The selection and approval of a judge depends on his interpretation of the Constitution.
NOT on politics. The dimocrats in the Senate are mistaken.
Shouldn’t 9 mo old babies in the womb have the same Rights as a child sneaking across the border?
this encourages us that this is a good nomination!
thanks
Yes; long before it.
The RATs “answer” to every issue is it will result in the overturning of Row v. Wade!
We have too few real women alive today, and the RATs play to their favored method of birth control, killing your unborn child.
National Organization of Women, I had NO idea they were still around. Is anyone paying dues now that Roselyn Carter is not on their band wagon.
Course, if you think about the libs and how little they stop to think about any situation, this is as far as they get, the end of their noses...
But then again, look who they are planning on running again in 2020...that tells you something right there...(the ugly old smelly hag)...
Best Election ever, just keeps getting better 24/7!
What a bunch of angry hysterics.
They never miss a chance to bash billionaires.
I am running out of popcorn. Winning!

What really cracks me up is anyone so senile as to think Free Repubublic is interested about anything NOW says.
You DO know what NOW is, right?.
Abortions separate children from their parent.
Moloch, DNC Chairogre, has spoken.
