| Friday night, we mourned, we honored, and we prayed for Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and her family.
And in the days since, I’ve heard from a number of people all asking me: “What now?”
Well, now, we fight for her legacy.
Mitch McConnell wasted no time declaring he would bring Trump’s appointee to a vote on the Senate floor, where he holds a Republican majority. And there is no doubt in my mind that Donald Trump will nominate someone who will overturn the Affordable Care Act, strip protections from immigrants, overturn Roe v. Wade, and more.
We cannot let them win this fight. Millions of Americans are counting on us to stand up, right now, and fight like hell to protect the Supreme Court -- not just for today, but for generations to come. The work of holding Senate Republicans accountable to the standard they set in 2016 starts now. To Joe and me, it is clear: The voters should pick a President, and that President should select a successor to Justice Ginsburg.
But we know, like you do, that the most important thing we can do to protect that legacy is not just winning the White House, but electing a Senate majority that will confirm fair-minded Supreme Court appointees who believe in equal justice under the law.
That’s why I’m asking you today to fight alongside me and to make sure that when the time comes, President Joe Biden can appoint a justice to Justice Ginsburg’s seat who will uphold the rule of law and fight for all of us.
The only way that happens is if we elect Joe Biden to be our next president and we flip the Senate. Nothing less.

This was already the most important election of our lifetimes -- but now, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Millions of Americans are counting on us to win and protect the Supreme Court -- for their health, for their families, and for their rights.
Years from now, when we look back on this moment -- your children or grandchildren may ask you what it was like to live through this inflection point in our country’s history.
You won’t just tell them how you felt -- you’ll tell them what you did.
For The People,
Kamala Harris |
