I Know Your First Impulse Is To Despair. To Say We’re Fucked. To Feel Desperate And Hopeless. I Feel

I know your first impulse is to despair. To say we’re fucked. To feel desperate and hopeless. I feel it. We all feel it.

But Notorious RBG would not have wanted us to lie down and accept defeat.

She’d have wanted us to fight like hell. And that’s what we’re going to do.

Call your house rep: Find them by Zipcode

Script: “Hi, my name is ____ I am one of your constituents. I am calling to ask Congressperson ______ to go on the record saying they will respect Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s dying wishes as well as the precedent set in 2016 to not nominate a new Justice until after a new president is installed. Thanks for your time.” Call your senator: (202) 224-3121 Capitol Switchboard Don’t know who your senator is? Find your senator

Script: “Hi, my name is ________ and I live in (STATE). I am calling to ask Senator ______ to go on the record saying the Senate will not hold hearings on any potential replacement for Justice Ginsburg until after a new president is installed, per Justice Ginsburg’s last wishes and the precedent set in 2016. Thank you for your time.”

If you're fifteen or older an still sleep with a stuffed animal please reblog this.

My friend is embarrassed and thinks she’s the only one and I said id prove her wrong.

fuck the fact that trump is going to nominate someone to the court who will be antithetical to everything Justice Ginsburg stood for and fought for. fuck the fact that republicans will confirm that nominee even though voting has literally already started for this election. fuck the fact that the Supreme Court is now poised to undue any semblance of progressive litigation for the rest of our lives.

but you know what? more than anything else, FUCK the fact that THIS is the conversation we are having right now– instead of having the space and capacity to simply mourn the loss of a woman who fought so hard for justice her entire life, who was a trailblazer in every sense of the word, who deserves to be mourned and honored in her own right, not like this.
