Corporations are not people. AFSCME members know that. So do working Americans.

But right-wing lawmakers and judges don’t seem to understand this. That’s why we urge you to call your U.S. senators, too many of whom seem prepared to confirm Judge Neil Gorsuch to the U.S. Supreme Court even though he refuses to answer simple questions.

Gorsuch appears to believe that corporations are people, and that’s troubling. Your senators need to hear from you today.

Call Your Senators and Ask them to Ask Gorsuch if Corporations Are People!

If you are a government employee, you should only call during your non-work hours and while using personal (not government) equipment.

As a federal judge, Gorsuch supported a case that ruled corporations are “persons” and therefore could deny vital health care coverage to their employees based on the corporate owners’ personal religious views.

On March 20, Gorsuch will go before members of the Senate to make his case to serve a lifetime term on the highest court in the land. If he is confirmed, he will make decisions that affect each and every one of our lives, including whether or not we have access to the health care we need, how and when we can vote, and whether our Constitution protects the rights of working people or unfairly favors corporations and the wealthy.

We must be sure that Gorsuch would use the Constitution to protect all people, not just the rich and powerful.
