Subject: Action Alert: Sutton Hearing 10:00 am Wednesday
Importance: High
Help Stop Sutton!
Just received word that the Senate Judiciary Committee is proceeding
with a fast-track hearing on the Sutton nomination. The hearing will
be
in Dirksen Senate Office Building, Room 226 this Wednesday, May 23 at
10 AM.
We need you to call now and ask Senators on the committee to oppose
this nomination. Please forward this alert to other concerned
Americans
who want to protect the ADA. Remind them that Sutton has questioned
the constitutionality of the ADA, successfully represented Alabama in
the Supreme Court Garrett case which weakened ADA enforcement, has
stated that the ADA "was not needed", and has been instrumental in
rolling back civil rights protections related to age and racial
discrimination. Call now! We really need you! Contact numbers are
listed below.
Thanks,
Jim Ward
