Senator Heller: Oppose the Nuclear Option
We demand that you allow all voices of the Senate to be heard by voting AGAINST invoking the "nuclear option," which would remove the 60 vote threshold for nomination and thus rush through Neil Gorsuch's confirmation.
Why is this important?
After unconstitutionally refusing to allow a hearing for the legal Supreme Court nomination of Merrick Garland, it would be even more despicable of Senate Republicans to invoke the "nuclear option" in order to remove the 60 vote threshold for Supreme Court nominations and to rush through Neil Gorsuch's confirmation. Such a nomination should never be rushed or forced through Congress, but it is especially inappropriate when the President who made the nomination, and his administration, are under investigation by the FBI. Senator Heller, we implore you to listen to the concerns of your constituents and oppose invoking the "nuclear option."
