The full Senate is slated to consider the nomination of anti-women,
anti-civil rights Judge Charles Pickering to the Fifth Circuit Court of
Appeals. Senators should filibuster Pickering's nomination, and he should
not be confirmed.

Pickering opposes equal rights for women and abortion rights. As a
Mississippi State Senator, Pickering voted in favor of a convention to
propose a constitutional amendment to ban abortion, and he voted against
state funding for family planning groups. In 1976, he chaired the
subcommittee of the National Republican Party that approved a plank
calling for an amendment to the US Constitution to make abortion illegal.
Pickering also opposed the Equal Rights Amendment.
