Letter to the Editor: Call Our Senators

Trump’s nomination of Brett Kavanaugh for the Supreme Court is appalling for several reasons, but the one that disturbs me most is his position on presidential power. The Executive Branch has been gaining power for decades to the point where Executive Orders rival legislation by our representatives. But Kavanaugh has suggested that he would go further, making the President above the law for the first time in our democratic history. This is how dictators are put in place. We know this from 20th-century history. The Senate must not confirm this appointment. Call our Senators now!
