Protect Healthcare and Disability Rights: Oppose the Nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court! Reminder: take action to protect the Affordable Care Act and disability rights! Fundamental civil rights and healthcare are two key issues in the Senate’s upcoming hearings on Supreme Court nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh.  The hearings are set to start on September 4th. The vote on whether or not to confirm Kavanaugh will affect our laws and lives for decades. CPR encourages people with disabilities, their families and allies to learn more about Judge Kavanaugh’s record and what his confirmation could mean to the disability community.  Educate your Senators about the importance of your rights and continuing access to healthcare.
