Senator Joe Donnelly: Vote No on SCOTUS Appointment of Brett Kavanaugh

Victory! The creator of this petition declared the campaign a success. You can still sign the petition to show support.

We oppose the appointment of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. We believe him to be unfit in every way for this position.

Why is this important?

We are coming together to show that we oppose the appointment of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. We believe him to be unfit in every way for this position.

His record shows a consistent pattern of siding with big money and corporations over the interests of the American worker. He has expressed dissent against the Affordable Care Act. He has a history of blocking access to abortions. He lied during the confirmation hearings for his current position on the federal appeals court about his involvement with the terrorism policy following 9/11. And he has consistently sided with arguments that favor broad executive authority during his 12 years on the bench in Washington. His most shocking stance is that a sitting president should not be subjected to criminal investigation.

Many are in support of Kavanaugh’s appointment simply because they believe he will help overturn Roe v. Wade. The desire to have it overturned is due to their belief in the sanctity of life. But we believe in sanctity of life too!

We believe in the sanctity of women’s lives, that they should have access to local, safe, and comprehensive reproductive healthcare and have the right to make decisions about their own bodies.

We believe in the sanctity of Black lives, that they should not live in fear of police brutality and being killed by those who are sworn to serve and protect.

We believe in the sanctity of Flint lives and the lives in our own East Chicago, Indiana, that they should have access to safe drinking water in their cities.

We believe in the sanctity of Puerto Rican lives, that they should be given the aid due to American citizens to restore electricity and help rebuild their lives.

We believe in the sanctity of Indigenous lives, that they should be remembered, respected, and represented on this land of theirs.

We believe in the sanctity of immigrant lives, regardless of whether they are documented or not, that they should be welcomed and given a chance to build a safer and more prosperous life alongside all of us.

We believe in the sanctity of Muslim lives, that they should not be discriminated against or harmed due to their religion, and we say NO to the Muslim ban.

We believe in the sanctity of Jewish lives, that they should not still face anti-Semitism in the twenty-first century.

We believe in the sanctity of children’s lives, that they should be able to go to school without the threat of guns disrupting their learning and their very lives.

We believe in the sanctity of LGBTQIA+ lives, that our Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex and Asexual siblings should not face violence or discrimination because they are true to themselves, and they should be allowed to live in peace — and if they desire it, in matrimony — with whomever they love.

We believe in the sanctity of the life of this earth, that it should be taken care of and used with respect and not exploited for gain.

We believe in the sanctity of military lives, both actively serving and veterans, that they should be afforded the best healthcare and every amenity we can provide in gratitude for their service and sacrifice.

We believe in the sanctity of the lives of the average American, that they should be able to work at an honest job and make a living wage with margin to provide for their futures, and that they should have access to affordable healthcare regardless of pre-existing conditions.

We believe in the sanctity of life, every life. And we demand a government and a court that reflect and uphold these same values.

This is why we say NO to Kavanaugh. This is why we tell our senators, Joe Donnelly and Todd Young, to stop Kavanaugh by voting against his appointment to SCOTUS. This is why we unite – for justice, for all.
