PCCC and allies are going to Sen. McConnell's home state! Can you add your name to the petition?

We just broke more big Supreme Court news this morning.

ABC News reports: The PCCC and allies "are joining forces to organize an event this Friday in Sen. Mitch McConnell's home state of Kentucky." Politico: "Groups will deliver half a million signatures."

Media will be present as we take the fight right to the Senate Republican Leader's office and demand he allow a vote on the president's upcoming Supreme Court nominee.

We want the number to be as high as possible for tomorrow's big media event. Can you add your name to the petition today? Click here.

Minutes after Justice Antonin Scalia's death was announced, McConnell began the obstructing -- saying the next president should appoint a replacement.

4 Republican senators have now backtracked on their obstruction, due to local pressure. Including the Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee! That's why this home state pressure on McConnell is so important.

At the media event, a local gun owner, local parents, and others will speak out -- showing McConnell that the public is outraged at his threats to thwart the Constitution.

Empower local Kentucky voters to speak with a louder voice tomorrow. Sign the petition against Republican obstruction of the next Supreme Court nominee.

We're organizing tomorrow's event in collaboration with MoveOn.org Civic Action, Color Of Change, Demand Progress, People For the American Way, Every Voice, Common Cause. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Rep. Donna Edwards (MD-4) also collected signatures.

WASHINGTON POST: Activists to bring SCOTUS fight to Mitch McConnell’s doorstep

"The delivery of the petitions is one of the most dramatic gestures yet from activists on both sides of the political divide who have mobilized to feverish levels in recent days, citing the sky-high stakes of a nomination battle."

Lots of Kentucky media have confirmed they'll be there! We want the number of signatures to be as high as possible as we shame the Senate Republican Leader for his obstruction.

Can you add your name to over 500,000 others before this afternoon's event -- and pass this to others? Click here.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.

-- Keith Rouda, PCCC Organizer and Kentucky resident
