MoveOn PAC Urges Citizen Filibusters Nationwide

From MoveOn PAC:
Citizen Filibuster to Stop the Right-Wing Power Grab
Senators are right now debating the future of our courts and our democracy in Washington. Join MoveOn members across the country in round-the-clock, 24-hour Citizen Filibusters starting Tuesday May 24 at 12 Noon to send a message that senators should do the right thing.

This is an emergency. If Republicans succeed, they’ll have complete power to reshape the Supreme Court, appointing justices who oppose the worker protections, women's rights, and environmental laws. This could be the most important decision the Senate makes this decade, because the impact of these lifetime appointments will be felt for a generation.

Please consider changing your schedule for the next couple of days to help out starting this Tuesday, May 24, at 12 noon. Host your own Citizen Filibuster to Stop the Right-Wing Power Grab or sign up for an event near you.
***************
Editor's Note: So far, there are citizen filibusters in New Mexico scheduled for Albuquerque at Senator Pete Domenici's office and Santa Fe at the Federal Courthouse. to sign up for these, find others or create your own event.
