families, separated at the border, with children left to live in cages. lgbtq youth facing the threat of being denied services because of who they are. abortion care under constant threat and at risk of being entirely outlawed. a climate of fear and hostility toward muslims, and ever more brazen actions by white supremacists. this is the reality young people are facing.<\/p>\n

if kavanaugh is confirmed for a lifetime seat on this country\u2019s highest court, young people will be impacted for the rest of our lives. our future to love who we want, to access reproductive health care including birth control and abortion, and to live without constant attacks to our health and wellbeing is in jeopardy. young people want to move this country forward, not backwards. we need courageous leaders to be in solidarity with us – not elected officials who sell us out every time it\u2019s politically convenient.<\/p>\n

this is our country, our judicial branch, our lives, and our future. we\u2019ll be looking to our senators to represent our interests and reject brett kavanaugh\u2019s supreme court nomination. don\u2019t underestimate the passion and perseverance of our generation. we demand senators reject this nominee.<\/p>\n

sincerely,
