ANOTHER RADICAL MOVE FROM THE SUPREME COURT

Hyperpartisan judges continue to blatantly carry out right-wing agenda

SAN FRANCISCO, CA (June 21, 2022) — Today, the Supreme Court’s right-wing justices continued their efforts to dramatically undermine the separation of church and state with a new ruling in Carson v. Makin. Take Back the Court released the following statement on behalf of its executive director, Sarah Lipton-Lubet, in response:

“Another day, another radical move by the Supreme Court’s stolen right-wing supermajority to blatantly infringe upon people’s fundamental freedoms. The only way to safeguard a future where our rights and freedoms are protected is to expand the Court.”

Take Back the Court raises awareness about the urgent need to expand the number of seats on the Supreme Court to address the theft of the court by Senator Mitch McConnell during the Obama Administration. Without adding seats, Congress will not be able to restore the right to vote, ensure reproductive freedom, protect workers, halt our climate emergency, or pass new legislation. Court expansion, which can be accomplished without a constitutional amendment, is the only reform that enables the un-rigging of the system and the restoration of democracy.
