Supreme Court Action Thread
by Chris Bowers, Tue Jul 19, 2005 at 12:25:30 PM EDT
It is going down tonight, and so we have to act. Will it be Clement? Probably. Here is the start of some opposition work: TPM Café, Dailykos. if oppo isn't your thing, here is a list of other actions you can take:
- If you have a cell phone, sign up for People at the American Way's Mass Immediate Response site. This way, you'll be able to receive text message action items instantly as events break. (If you signed up during the nuclear option fight, you'll need to re-sign up.) Write to the President, telling him he should choose a consensus candidate to replace O'Connor.
- Also sign up with the Save the Court, another PFAW website devoted specifically to this issue. Recruit friends and family members to the cause.
- A complete list of NARAL links can be found here.
- Contact your Senators to tell them the same thing. In particular, focus on members of the judiciary committee. Who we really need to bombard in Arlen Specter, the chairman. His contact info can be found here.
- An exhaustive list of media contacts can be found here.
- For all media and political contacts you make, I have put together some talking points in the extended entry. I hope they are helpful.
