SIGN Rainbow/PUSH petition - Oppose Alito - they want more sigs NOW !
Sign this petition - Demand Filibuster of Alito:
< http://ga3.org/campaign/Alito >
Senator Barack Obama
Senator Debbie Stabenow
Senator Dianne Feinstein
Senator Dick Durbin
Senator Edward Kennedy
Senator Harry Reid
Senator Hillary Clinton
Senator Joe Lieberman


Act NOW to demand a filibuster of the Alito nomination to demonstrate the importance of the Supreme Court and the future of Americans for years to come.

50 years of civil, human and women's rights advances are at stake - from Brown v. Board of Education, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

If Judge Alito is confirmed to the Supreme Court, the civil rights gains made over the last five decades will indisputably be reversed, along with the expansion of job opportunities, woman's right to choose without prohibitions and insurmountable obstacles, campaign finance reform, the right to be free of state-sponsored discrimination, and the protection of Americans' civil liberties in times of national crisis.

Based on Judge Alito's record, rulings and recent testimony, we are more convinced than ever that his confirmation will solidify the concerted right-wing strategy developed during the Reagan administration to radically remake the federal judiciary. It has become clear that this systematic conservative take-over will come to fruition with Judge Alito's confirmation.

Judge Alito must be kept off of the Supreme Court. On critical issues such as privacy rights, civil rights, and the limits of executive power, Judge Alito does not have an "open mind."

ACT NOW. PETITION YOUR REPRESENTATIVES to take a leadership role to filibuster the Alito nomination. The stakes could not be higher.

This action alert is drawn from a statement from the Californians for Fair and Independent Judges - Rainbow/PUSH is a member of the Coalition.

Sign this petition - Demand Filibuster of Alito:
< http://ga3.org/campaign/Alito >
Senator Barack Obama
Senator Debbie Stabenow
Senator Dianne Feinstein
Senator Dick Durbin
Senator Edward Kennedy
Senator Harry Reid
Senator Hillary Clinton
Senator Joe Lieberman

34. The idea is to push Durbin, Kennedy to push the reluctant Senators -
We need *power* arm twisting and it has to come from Dem Leaders in Senate.

But do we really think it will do any good at this point?
