Today’s vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court was disappointing, with an impact that will reverberate for decades to come. In particular, Mr. Kavanaugh’s confirmation sends a clear message to women and girls: you don’t matter. #BelieveSurvivors #TakeItBack

The GOP has appointed a man who believes birth control is abortion and that abortion is illegal to the highest court in the land, an institution that is meant to protect and represent the freedoms of all people -- men, women, and children of every race, religion, and ethnicity.

Brett Kavanaugh’s appointment to a lifetime seat on the Supreme Court will have devastating consequences for communities across the United States for decades to come.

But we will not rest with this decision. Come November, a wave of fierce candidates are coming to Congress, bringing the fight against the long reign of privilege and power to Washington, D.C.

I stand with women and all marginalized communities in our fight to restore dignity, fairness, and respect for all.
