Put Pressure on Harry Reid and Carl Levin and the rest of the Senate Democrats to Eliminate the Blue Slip Tradition.

Created by B.S. on April 19, 2014

If the DEMS lose the Senate in Nov 2014, Obama will have no ability to get his judicial nominees confirmed. Just in case that happens, we need DEMS to do away with the blue slip tradition that requires both Senators from each state to sign-off on the president's picks. The GOP is already abusing this by withholding their slips for no good reason. And they are forcing Harry Reid to file cloture on every single nominee which wastes hours that turn into days of time on the Senate floor for no other reason than to obstruct. We The People need to get fair experienced judges on the Federal bench who will not put ideology above common sense when ruling on issues of social justice which effect equality and freedom for everyone.
