Stop the Relentless Assault on our Courts
Senator Diane Feinstein
SF Office: (415) 393-0707
DC Office: (202) 224-3841
LA Office: (310) 914-7300
Fresno Office: (559) 485-7430
San Diego Office: (619) 231-9712
If you can't get through to one office, try another. There is no benefit to calling one office over another. Leaving a voicemail is as good as reaching a live person.

DC Office: (202) 224-3553
Sacramento Office: (916) 448-2787
LA Office: (213) 894-5000
San Diego Office: (619) 239-3884
Call the SF office first, but try the other offices if you can’t get through. If you can’t get a live person, leave a voicemail and also send a follow-up email written in your own words.

The GOPs relentless assault on our Courts has continued through this week's Senate recess, with the the total number of judicial appointments to our District and Circuit appellate courts approaching 100, in addition to the two horrific Supreme Court justices already appointed by this administration! It is imperative that our Senators do everything in their power to delay, obstruct and stop the next batch of dangerous and extreme alt-right judicial nominees, some of whom don't even have the support of their home state senators. The Senator must fight each of these extreme nominations:
Chad Readler for the 6th Circuit
Eric Murphy for the 6th Circuit
Allison Jones Rushing for the 4th Circuit
Jonathan Kobes for the 8th Circuit
Stephen R. Clark for federal district court in Missouri
Each of these nominees has an abysmal civil rights record and will be appointed for life. The impact of their decisions will be felt for generations to come. They must not be allowed to serve.
Background

This Week's US Senate Call Scripts
Tell President Biden and our Members of Congress: Stand fast, don’t surrender to MAGA Republican shutdown blackmail!
Republicans are playing brazen, dangerous hardball in order to force Trump-era immigration policies in exchange for support for Ukraine, and Democrats are considering caving to their demands. Tell your Senators to reject these draconian policies.
Tell your Members of Congress: Support the Biden Administration’s supplemental funding package!
We repeat: Call President Biden and your Members of Congress and tell them: "Hold fast! Do not surrender to political blackmail—even if it means a government shutdown!"
We’ve enjoyed decades of online life with strong protections for freedom of speech. It’s a complicated subject of rights and responsibilities, just as life—online and off—is complicated. But while the current state of things is not perfect and there may still be room for improvement, it’s a pretty good balance on the whole.
A bill introduced in the previous Congress and reintroduced in this year threatens to upset that balance. As is so often the case, the proposal is ostensibly “for the children;” the new bill is called the Kids Online Safety Act. It would force messaging services like iMessage, Signal, and WhatsApp, along with social media services like Twitter, Facebook, and Mastodon, to gatekeep who can participate in online life and to monitor what we say.
This is a dangerous, poorly-thought-out bill with a dangerously high number of bipartisan cosponsors in the Senate. We must stop this bill from becoming law.
As the House and Senate begin debating the ransom deal legislation today, it is possible that Republicans will raise new extortion demands. Our response has to be: “Not one penny more! Not one policy retreat further!”
Tell the President and our senators that President Biden should withdraw the nomination of Elliott Abrams because it is antithetical to the Biden administration’s diplomatic support for democracies worldwide.
Contact your Members of Congress and tell them: pass the Supreme Court Ethics, Recusal, and Transparency Act of 2023 and show that they are serious about binding the Supreme Court to a code of ethics.
Tell President Biden and our Members of Congress to focus on progressive priorities in upcoming budget negotiations
Tell the President and our senators, we want Julie Su as Secretary of Labor to continue the great work of celebrating the dignity of work and reigniting the crucial role labor unions play in our democracy.
