Tell Congress: Oppose the JUDGES Act2

 


United for Democracy


In his first term, Donald Trump appointed over 200 judges and packed the Supreme Court with three MAGA justices. In the coming weeks, Trump will appoint even more judges—and they’re expected to be younger and more loyal to Trump than ever before.1

Now, Congressional Republicans are pushing the JUDGES Act, a bill that would create 22 new federal judgeships for Trump to fill before his term is up. They’re hell-bent on giving him even more unchecked power and influence over the judiciary.

Trump’s impact on our judicial system has already been devastating. The MAGA-packed Court has spent the last four years ripping at the fabric of our democracy—gutting voting rights, overturning Roe v. Wade, allowing billionaires to buy our elections, and even granting broad presidential immunity.

We can’t afford to let Trump rubber-stamp nearly two dozen loyal MAGA judges that could make life harder for the communities hardest hit by his hateful agenda.

Congress needs to ensure we have fair and impartial judges, not ones committed to a wannabe dictator. Send a message to your members of Congress now. Tell them to oppose the JUDGES Act >>

The last Congress agreed that we need more federal judgeships. Usually, these bills are passed in good faith before elections, without knowing which party will benefit. But the MAGA-controlled House of Representatives refused to pass the bill until Trump was elected, so they could be sure he could gain more unchecked power.

Since the bill was originally a bipartisan effort, there could still be enough Democratic support to get it over the finish line. But now that Trump has pushed us into a full-blown constitutional crisis, Democrats should hold the line and oppose the JUDGES Act.

Democrats and Republicans alike need to hear loud and clear that We The People do not support the MAGA takeover of the judiciary branch. Allowing Trump to fill 22 more judgeships would do nothing short of eroding our democracy for decades to come. Write to your member of Congress and tell them to oppose the JUDGES Act now.

Thank you for fighting back against the JUDGES Act,

Now that Trump is back in the Oval Office, he’s doubling down on the MAGA takeover of the courts. He’s declared ideological war on members of the judicial branch that dare try to hold him accountable. He’s ignoring orders from lower courts and the Supreme Court alike, and threatening to impeach judges who disagree with him.

To make matters worse, Congressional Republicans are trying to give him 22 more judgeships to fill, allowing him to install loyalists, evade accountability, and reshape our laws and our very democracy.

Our friends, family, and neighbors in vulnerable communities are hit hardest by Trump’s reshaping of the judiciary—and 22 more MAGA judgeships would have the power to make their lives for decades to come.

We need fair and impartial judges—ones who won’t advance an extreme anti-immigrant, anti-LGTBQ+, anti-woman, and anti-democracy agenda. Tell your members of Congress to oppose the JUDGES Act today >>

Thank you for supporting a fair and impartial justice system,
