Chairman Richie stated the following in an e-mail:
Texas Republican Senators Kay Bailey Hutchison and John Cornyn are playing politics with Sotomayor's nomination despite the fact that she is clearly more qualified to serve on the Court than many nominees they have supported in the past. They are pandering to the extreme right wing elements of their party and denying our voice in support of her historic nomination. Take action now to make your voice heard today!
If you don't have time to take action immediately, you can forward this e-mail to your friends, families, and neighbors, or contribute to the TDP so we can fight against Hutchison and Cornyn's partisan politics.
Tomorrow, we will send more information (and another slideshow) about Hutchison and Cornyn's opposition to Sotomayor. For now, though, join Texas Democrats across the state in standing in support of Judge Sonia Sotomayor.
