Tell Sen. Charles Schumer to Take Stand for Progressive Values by Voting No Tomorrow!

Dear People From New York Who Read Brandy's Blog (all 4 1/2 of you),

Tell Sen. Charles Schumer, who sits on the Judiciary Committee, to follow Sen. Reid's example tomorrow (Wednesday Septmber 21st) by voting no on Roberts! Call (202) 224-6542.

If all eight Democrats on the Judiciary Committee vote no tomorrow, they will be standing up for civil rights, privacy rights, immigrant rights, and environmental rights. They also will show, as Sen. Reid declared, that the White House cannot aid a stonewalling nominee "without some consequences."

Call Sen. Charles Schumer at (202) 224-6542 to demand a "no" vote on Roberts!

Sen. Reid's announcement comes as a new group of organizations have swollen the progressive ranks opposing Roberts. On Monday and Tuesday, the AFL-CIO, SEIU, AFSCME, American Association of University Women, Center for American Progress, the Congressional Black Caucus, the Lambda Legal Defense and Education Fund, and US Action joined the more than 35 organizations calling on senators to vote no.

Tell Sen. Charles Schumer to stand up for progressive values Thursday by voting no on Roberts! Call (202) 224-6542.
