With Donald Trump set to take office in January, Senate Democrats must act swiftly to confirm President Biden’s judicial nominees. Securing these appointments is one of the most productive actions Democrats can take to protect the judiciary from a right-wing shift and preserve progress on key issues like voting rights, reproductive rights, and environmental protections.

Currently, more than a dozen Biden judicial nominees are awaiting confirmation, including federal district and appeals court judges who are crucial to upholding constitutional rights and balanced justice. If these seats are left open, Trump will have the opportunity to pack the courts with judges who could dismantle decades of progress.

Senator Elizabeth Warren put it bluntly in a recent op-ed: "Democrats need to act like the clock is running out—because it is."

We call on Senate Democrats to immediately confirm all pending judicial nominees. This is our chance to protect the judiciary from an extremist shift and to ensure that our courts reflect the values of fairness, justice, and equality for all Americans.

Sign this petition to urge Senate Democrats to prioritize judicial confirmations and stand firm for a fair and balanced judiciary. The time is now—let’s not lose this critical opportunity.
