New from Equal Rights Advocates: ERA Calls for Halt of Kavanaugh Confirmation Hearings

In response to the news of a second allegation of sexual misconductby Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, Equal Rights Advocates releases the following statement:

We call upon the U.S. Senate to halt immediately the confirmation process involving Judge Brett Kavanaugh so that a thorough FBI investigation can take place. In the alternative, his nomination must be withdrawn.

Any person charged with deciding on matters related to the civil and constitutional rights of women must be held to the highest standard. We demand a process that exacts a conclusion that nominee Brett Kavanaugh has met it, unequivocally.

Take action to stop the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh.
