| Dear 5849376, Earlier this week, President Obama announced Judge Merrick Garland as his nominee to fill the vacancy on the Supreme Court. Since Justice Scalia's death, right-wing Republican extremists in the Senate have been promising to obstruct the president's authority to appoint a nominee. At this point, they are refusing to even hold hearings, much less give Garland an up-or-down vote. The grassroots pushback against this radical, unconstitutional power grab has been enormous. Hundreds of thousands of CREDO activists across the country have made phone calls, signed petitions, and taken action to call for an end to Republicans' partisan games. Now that we have a nominee, it's time to put even more pressure on these obstructionist Republicans and demand they do their job and give Garland a fair and timely hearing and an up-or-down vote. Next week, senators will be in their home states for spring recess. On Monday, March 21, we're joining with our friends at MoveOn and other progressive allies to host gatherings across the country at the offices of high-profile Republican obstructionists. We need to show up strong to hold them accountable. Will you join an action to ramp up the pressure on Sen. Chuck Grassley in Des Moines? Click here to RSVP and to get more details on the event What: Rally in Des Moines to pressure Sen. Grassley to stop obstructing
When: 12:00 PM on Monday, March 21
Where: 210 Walnut St. In addition to rallying outside Sen. Grassley 's office, we'll pour in calls and flood social media so Sen. Grassley won't be able to miss the voices of constituents calling for a fair and timely hearing for Judge Garland. With so much at stake, it's crucial that we show our strength on Monday. Can you join the rally and help tell Republican extremists in the Senate to stop their obstruction and give Judge Garland a timely hearing and an up-or-down vote?
