Today, two Trump judges on the 11th Circuit ruled that bans on anti-LGBTQ "conversion therapy" violate the First Amendment.
This incredibly dangerous decision could send the question to the Supreme Court - which Trump and Senate Republicans have stacked in their favor. https://twitter.com/mjs_DC/status/1329833793528737792

This is why we fought so hard against Trump's judges: they are specifically selected *because* of their far-right views. And our Confirmed Judges, Confirmed Fears tool is full of examples of these judges putting their dangerous, ultraconservative agenda into action on the bench.
It's also important to note that the judges involved in today's decision - Britt Grant and Barbara Lagoa - were on Donald Trump's Supreme Court short list.
Which means Trump and his advisors legitimately considered putting these people on the Supreme Court.

This is what Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans have been prioritizing this week: instead of addressing COVID relief or Trump's attacks on our democracy, they've been laser-focused on rushing more people like Grant and Lagoa into lifetime seats on the federal bench.
This is why we won't stop calling on our senators to protect our rights and reject Trump's judges. There's too much at stake to allow him to continue to pack our courts with far-right ideologues. #NoMoreTrumpJudges
