This afternoon, union-label Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is set to call a cloture vote in the U.S. Senate on the nomination of Cornelia Pillard to a seat on the D.C. Court of Appeals. We cant let Barack Obama do to the courts what hes done with the federal bureaucracy. You see, not only is the D.C. Circuit the nations second most powerful court, its the same court that rebuked Obama for his unconstitutional recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board. So please call your U.S. Senators at once and urge them to vote against Barack Obamas court-packing scheme on all votes, including cloture on the Cornelia Pillard nomination. Sen. Barbara Boxer: (202) 224-3553 Sen. Dianne Feinstein: (202) 224-3841 The truth is, its unacceptable for Barack Obama to seek revenge against a federal court for refusing to rubber-stamp his unconstitutional power grab. Fortunately, judicial nominations are still subject to the Senates consent -- for now. But Im afraid Reid may reignite his threats to invoke the so-called nuclear option -- his scheme to gut the filibuster and ram through radical nominees without a 60-vote threshold. The last time Reid made this threat, a handful of Senate Republicans led by John McCain of Arizona and Lamar Alexander of Tennessee negotiated a disastrous deal that gave Obama a fully-stocked NLRB to do Big Labors bidding. If Reid guts the filibuster for nominations, its only a matter of time before he guts the filibuster for legislation too. Over and over again since our founding, the National Right to Work Committee and our members have used the Senate filibuster to keep Big Labor from stealing even more destructive monopoly power. So please call your Senators at once and tell them no more deals. The vote is scheduled for later today, so please act at once. Call your U.S. Senators right away, and urge them to vote against Barack Obamas court-packing scheme. Sen. Barbara Boxer: (202) 224-3553 Sen. Dianne Feinstein: (202) 224-3841 And after calling your Senators, please consider chipping in with a contribution of $10 or more to help your National Right to Work Committee keep up the fight against Big Labor. But most importantly, please call your Senators at once. Sincerely, Mark Mix P.S.
