SUMMARY:Pitch Perfect: PPP Op-Ed Training
DESCRIPTION:Join us at 10:00 a.m. ET on March 12th for a training on how to write and place an effective op-ed. \nThere’s a lot going on when it comes to the American judiciary. In less than two weeks\, confirmation hearings for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson\, the first Black woman nominated to the Supreme Court\, will begin. It’s an incredible moment\, and it’s critical that we show the broad support for Judge Jackson. Unfortunately\, however\, we’re also just months away from the end of the Supreme Court’s term\, and the urgency of court reform has never been more clear. On top of that\, we have state courts that too often go unscrutinized\, leading to low democratic engagement with their local judiciary\, even in cases when that judiciary is elected. \nWe know how critical it is that progressive law students and attorneys spread the word about these important issues. One of the most effective means of doing this is by writing op-eds; unfortunately\, writing and pitching op-eds is not something that law school equips you to do. That’s why we’re bringing together attorney and writer Madiba Dennie\, PPP organizer and co-author of a recent Teen Vogue opinion piece on the Court’s shadow docket Dan Wade\, and PPP’s Policy & Program Director (and experienced op-ed writer) Tristin Brown for a training on writing and placing effective op-eds\, open to law students and lawyers everywhere. \nFrom 10:00–11:00\, we’ll be holding a roundtable discussion\, so bring your questions! Starting at 11:00\, we’ll moving into small-group workshops; this time is for attendees to workshop you own ideas\, get feedback on big-picture themes\, and ensure you leave ready to put pen to paper on your next op-ed. \n\n[actionnetwork id=65]

SUMMARY:Supreme Court Organizing Call
DESCRIPTION:Last week\, Justice Stephen Breyer announced he would retire from the Supreme Court\, giving President Biden an opportunity to fulfill his campaign pledge to nominate the first Black woman to the Supreme Court. While the president reiterated that pledge last week\, we know that our work is only just beginning.\n\nWe need to ensure that the nominee is a true progressive champion — and we need to get her confirmed. We need to continue the push for Supreme Court expansion\, so that our new justice doesn’t spend the rest of her career writing dissenting opinions on a Supreme Court stolen by the Federalist Society. We need to keep our focus on the state courts\, lower federal courts\, and all of the venues in which people seek justice. And we need to continue to grow the movement dedicated to unrigging the law and building a legal system that works for people\, not corporate profits.\n\nIt’s a lot to do\, which is why we need all hands on deck. Lawyers and law students from around the country are invited to join us on Wednesday\, February 2\, at 6:30 ET/3:30 PT for an organizing call to discuss what comes next. RSVP below!\n\n\n\n[actionnetwork id=64]

SUMMARY:Study Break + Dobbs Debrief
DESCRIPTION:What a week. Watching the culmination of nearly half a century’s work to overturn Roe has been incredibly painful — and knowing that progressives have let it happen? Absolutely infuriating. If you’re like us\, you’ve spent much of the last few days thinking about the many failures that got us here (and probably screaming with rage a non-negligible number of times). But since we can’t change the past\, I want to talk about what comes next.\n\nHere’s what we know: we’re not going to litigate our way out of this situation. Sitting around throwing our hands up won’t get us anywhere either. It’s going to take deep\, hard organizing work — a true movement dedicated to real justice\, within and outside of our legal system. We’ve seen the power this work can have (see\, e.g.\, the Federalist Society’s 6–3 majority on the Supreme Court). And fortunately\, we have a community that’s capable of doing the work. It’s just a matter of if we have the will.\n\nFor the law students in our community\, you’re invited to a Study Break + Dobbs Debrief on Monday\, December 6\, at 7:00 PM ET/4:00 PM PT. We’ll have an open Zoom room and a community of folks to process the events of this week with (and to share in the anger that none of your professors bothered to acknowledge what was happening at the Court). We’ll also send everybody who signs up in advance a gift card to a coffee shop so that you can bring a hot chocolate or tea with you. :)\n\nPlease RSVP below so we can send the gift card and Zoom link your way!\n\n\n\n[actionnetwork id=63]
