Washington, DC — Today, Meagan Hatcher Mays, Director of Democracy Policy at Indivisible, issued the following statement:
“Republicans just voted Amy Coney Barrett out of committee with no Democrats present. This is further proof that the entire process is an illegitimate sham.
“This nominee refused to say whether or not climate change is real. She refused to say whether abortion is constitutional. She refused to say whether the ACA is the law of the land. She wouldn't even say whether or not the president can unilaterally change the date of the election. (He can’t.)
“Amy Coney Barrett is an extremist who has no business replacing RBG, and has no business serving on the Supreme Court at all.”
