Tell Your Senator: Oppose Todd Blanche for Attorney General

The Department of Justice is supposed to serve and protect the public, not one person. But Todd Blanche, Trump’s nominee for Attorney General and his own former defense lawyer, will continue to protect Trump — not the American people.

The Senate Judiciary Committee is set to hold a confirmation hearing for Blanche next week. The Senate must reject this dangerous nomination and oppose Todd Blanche for Attorney General.

Blanche has helped weaponize the Justice Department and recently attempted to give 1.8 billion taxpayer dollars to the president and his fellow January 6th insurrectionists, and use DOJ funds to pay out Big Polluters in order to stop them from building the clean energy projects we need to lower energy costs. Blanche at the head of the Justice Department is a dangerous power grab, endangering the freedoms and protections our communities need and deserve.

Our senators need to hear us loud and clear: Block Todd Blanche!

The Department of Justice is supposed to serve and protect the public, not one person. But Todd Blanche, Trump’s nominee for Attorney General and his own former defense lawyer, will continue to protect Trump — not the American people.

As Deputy Attorney General, Blanche has helped weaponize the Justice Department to go after Trump’s enemies and protect his friends — recently attempting to give 1.8 billion taxpayer dollars to the president and his fellow insurrectionists, and using DOJ funds to pay out Big Polluters in order to stop them from building the clean energy projects we need to lower energy costs. This is not justice.

Tell Your Senator Today: Block Todd Blanche!

Blanche has presided over the decimation of DOJ divisions responsible for protecting our environment, and our civil and voting rights. He has also openly welcomed Trump’s politicization of DOJ decisions while refusing to recuse from Trump-related matters and purging ethics officials. We cannot afford to allow Trump to continue to abuse his power with an Attorney General who serves his corrupt agenda instead of protecting the rule of law and the people’s rights. The Senate must reject this dangerous nomination.
