DefCon: Campaign to Defend The Constitution. Because The Religious Right Is Wrong
During our stem cell campaign, DefCon America ran two full page ads in the New York Times in May and June. Click here to see the ad from May. Click here to see the ad from June.

We also released our first video on YouTube featuring DefCon advisory board member and former NARAL head Kate Michelman's incredible story and by doing all we could to empower the millions of Americans for whom we are fighting. Click here to view the video.

To be sure, the fight for health and hope is not over. In the coming months, this fight will move to the states, where citizens are tired of waiting for a misguided President to do the right thing and have taken the issue into their own hands. Stay tuned to the DefCon Blog for updates.

Campaign Unavailable

We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Campaign to Defend the Constitution.

The short explanation of this alert was:

The President has nominated Harriet Miers to replace Sandra Day O'Connor on the United States Supreme Court.  As the pivotal swing vote on a divided Court, Justice O'Connor’s views were often decisive in establishing the law of the land – particularly on church/state issues.

 

For years, the religious right has sought to tip the balance of power on the Court.  Their goal remains a fusion of religious and political power that runs directly counter to the vision of the nation's founders and the protections in our Constitution.

 

Write your Senators today and ask them to protect separation of church and state by examining Ms. Miers' views in more depth.  Since Ms. Miers has no judicial record and little is yet known of her personal views on critical issues, the stakes couldn’t be higher.
