From Naral Pro Choice Washington: On Saturday, April 1 , two days before the Senate Judiciary Committee votes on the nomination of Judge Neil Gorsuch, Seattle residents will rally to call on US Senators Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell to stand strong in opposition to President Trump's dangerous agenda, including his pick for the Supreme Court.

Tiffany Hankins, Executive Director of NARAL Pro-Choice Washington, said: "Judge Gorsuch has spent his confirmation hearings dodging tough questions about women's right to make their own reproductive health care choices, but we've looked at his judicial record and we know the truth: Neil Gorsuch opposes abortion rights and access to birth control1, and will work to overturn decades of progress on reproductive rights if the Senate confirms him to this lifetime appointment. Judge Gorsuch has made it clear that he does not respect women's right to make our own reproductive health care decisions. This Saturday, we're calling on Sens. Murray and Cantwell to stand with women and oppose the nomination of Judge Gorsuch and the rest of Trump's extremist agenda."

"Neil Gorsuch is so out of touch that the current Supreme Sourt recently voted unanimously to overturn a decision he wrote pertaining to students with disabilities; he argued that a school must provide education that is merely "more than de minimus," or, in plain English, so meaningless it can't really be called education," said Karen Strickland, President of the American Federation of Teachers Washington, AFL-CIO. "His performance as a judge merits an F, and that's not good enough to be on our Supreme Court!"
