Janice Rogers Brown Passes Judiciary Committee Vote

Bush judicial nominee for the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, Calif. Justice Janice Rogers Brown, was approved by a 10-9 vote of the Judiciary Committee Thursday.

A filibuster is expected when the nomination comes to a full Senate vote. This is an important nomination to block because Brown is frequently mentioned as a possible Supreme Court replacement. The DC Circuit Court of Appeals is considered the most influential appeals court in the nation.

Call your Senators today and tell them you want a filibuster. Here's the phone list with their individual office numbers. Or call the toll free Congressional switchboard, 1- 800-839-5276. For some reasons why, go here and here. Here's some of the latest news on the planned filibuster.
