I called Sen. Rubio's office yesterday about Kavanaugh. I'm a dad of a son and daughter.

I don’t want my daughter to spend the next 40 years of her life living in a country where a SCOTUS Justice is a sexual predator. And I want my son to grow up in a country where men respect women and don’t treat them like sexual objects.

Come on, men! We need to step up and support our sisters, moms, and daughters! Make the call, it’s not hard!

Call the Senate NOW! This means men too!
87% of the calls have been made by women...why is this considered a woman's issue? It is a human rights issue!
Call the Senate Judiciary Comm this week...

https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/about/members
Call them and tell them that they will NOT get reelected by the majority of the US who is against Kavanaugh.
Call all senators and tell them that they are HYPOCRITES and you only vote for reps who have morals and values and who respect women. RESISTANCE WORKS!
Senate DC directory
(202)224-3121

Call the 8 "iffy" Dem and GOP senators too.

it's a lifelong appointment who wants to see this jerk rule against women rights or any minority he's a sleaze.

If you can contact Rubio, I can contact Cotton and Boozman.

I think we're both pissing up a rope but all you can do is the best you can do.

At the very least, these calls will make them more careful about the next nominee and will make all other nominees think about the skeletons in their closets.

This week vindicates the actions of all the women who marched and all the activists (like bettyellen and BigmanPigman) who have been urging people to call, in the face of all those who said it was hopeless because of repuke majority.
