“Justices should not be for sale”

“RALLY AT PALATINE VOLUNTEER/ CLOCK TOWER PLAZA”

Attend the Palatine RALLY to call out corruption on SCOTUS!

Indivisibles across Illinois are coming to Palatine to call out corruption on SCOTUS! 5/22nd @4-5:30

Justice should not be for sale, but some MAGA justices on the Supreme Court have been caught accepting lavish gifts and luxury trips from billionaire Republican donors. And these donors are getting exactly what they wanted: ultraconservative decisions that roll back our fundamental rights, like overturning Roe v. Wade, gutting the Voting Rights Act, and allowing for LGBTQ+ discrimination.

It’s time we investigated this corruption and held these justices accountable.

We need Illinois Senator and Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee Dick Durbin to do everything in his power to investigate corruption on the court. He’s taken some initial steps, but we need him to go even further.

Indivisble’s IL SCOTUS Corruption Caravan is hitting the road and holding rallies to call on Senator Durbin to act now.

Meet up with the caravan at Palatine’s Volunteer Plaza / Clock Tower ..

as it makes its way across the state and invite your friends to join!

Bring signs

Sponsors of the Suburban Palatine Rally are NWSOFA-Indivisible, Indivisible-Evanston, Indivisible-DuPage and Indivisible-Illinois
