Senator Cantwell (Murray)
I expect you and every Senate Democrat to
join Senator Merkley and filibuster any and every nominee to the Supreme Court
who is not Merrick Garland. This is not about treating Republicans the way they
treated President Obama; Republicans were never in the position of having a
seat stolen from them. You have more justification than they ever had.
What Mitch McConnell and the Republicans did in denying
Merrick Garland a hearing was unconscionable; if you allow Republicans to
proceed, you are basically telling the American people, and millions of voters
like me who have supported you (I have) and who voted for President Obama, that
what Mitch McConnell did was OK, just a matter of tactics.
I will vote for and fully support anyone but you in a future
Democratic primary if you do not do everything possible to stop Donald Trump's
first Supreme Court nomination. They stole it. Raise your voice in protest.
Thanks,
Dennis
