"The stakes could not be clearer. If the courts are to remain a safeguard for all rather than a weapon for a despotic president, those who work within them must be willing to defend their independence."

Recent history has shown that attorneys and jurists can play a big role in bringing their nations back from the brink of autocracy. That day is coming for us as well.

Thank you, Senator Murray, for standing firm in defense of our courts and voting no on Eric Tung’s nomination to the Ninth Circuit. We appreciate your continued commitment to opposing Trump's #UnfitAndUnqualified judicial nominees.
I voted NO on Eric Tung for the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, which covers Washington state. He's spent his career attacking workers' rights, reproductive rights, environmental laws, and voting rights—and embracing dangerous fringe theories. Republicans confirmed him anyway.

When the president signed an executive order in March asserting radical powers over elections, he invited lawsuits. He’s now losing the court fights.
