We knew that Donald Trump& #39;s pick to fill the Supreme Court vacancy would be bad -- especially under these circumstances -- but Amy Coney Barrett is a truly horrifying pick.

Judge Barrett is a conservative’s dream to fill RBG’s seat.
Let us explain why. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👇" title="Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten" aria-label="Emoji: Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten">
She& #39;s heavily criticized Roe v. Wade -- calling the landmark ruling "a framework of abortion on demand" -- and made clear that she will ignore precedent and overturn laws as she sees fit. She& #39;s attacked efforts to ensure access to contraception as an assault on religious liberty.
She& #39;s openly opposed the Affordable Care Act, critiquing the Supreme Court& #39;s decision to uphold the individual mandate. Another ACA case is scheduled to begin just one week after November’s election. Confirming Coney Barrett would be an insurmountable barrier to the ACA& #39;s future.
She was paid by an anti-LGBTQ hate group to deliver a lecture.
She& #39;s also made a number of alarming rulings siding with employers and corporations instead of workers. Her first opinion issued as a judge on the Seventh Circuit helped a company racially segregate their workforce.
Barrett has already shown she would side with Trump over our democracy since she opposed Robert Mueller’s investigation.

Allowing Trump to name another far-right extremist to the Supreme Court could hand him the upcoming election if it came down to a judicial ruling.
Barrett has asserted other baffling opinions, including opposition to basic criminal justice reforms.

She& #39;s demonstrated her extremism consistently throughout her career and would uphold Trump’s agenda for decades to come if confirmed.

We must stop that from happening.
TOMORROW: We& #39;re gathering at local courthouses at 2 p.m. to demand no Supreme Court confirmation until after the inauguration.
