Americans of Conscience Checklist, Week of September 23, 2018
By Jen Hofmann
Six weeks to midterm elections.
Action: Protect voting access. Oppose Kavanaugh.
Call: Your two senators (look up).
Script: Hi. I’m calling from [ZIP] to ask [name] to oppose Brett Kavanaugh for the Supreme Court. As an appellate judge, Kavanaugh upheld a South Carolina law requiring voters to show an ID in order to vote, even though the law violated the Voting Rights Act and disproportionately affected minority voters. I support legal efforts to make public his complete record as well as pursue allegations that he lied under oath. Our democracy requires truth and transparency. Thank you.
