Supreme Court Repeals the 20th Century

In a matter of weeks, the Supreme Court has undermined, gutted, and outright reversed some of the most significant advancements of the 20th Century meant to protect Americans’ rights and freedoms.

The Court’s illegitimate right-wing majority has overturned the right to abortion, stymied the federal government’s ability to protect our right to clean air and fight the climate crisis, opened up the floodgates to increased gun violence, gutted Miranda rights, eviscerated the separation of Church and state, and continued its assault on voter protections.

These rights and protections are central to maintaining our collective safety, our personal autonomy, and the integrity of our democracy — and that’s exactly why the Court has targeted them. The Court’s rulings are bound together by no coherent judicial philosophy, only by six unelected lawyers’ determination to impose their own extreme views on the American people.
