The state legislature returns to business next week, and one of the items still pending before the House Judiciary Committee are the Merit Selection Bills (H.B. 1815 and H.B. 1816).  To start the constitutional amendment process — which will  culminate with the people voting on whether to change how we pick appellate court judges — the House Judiciary Committee must first vote the bills out.  This would send the bills to the full House for consideration.  Please contact members of the House Judiciary Committee, tell them you support Merit Selection, and ask them to vote the bills out.  Remember, this is a critical step to getting this issue on the ballot so the people of Pennsylvania can decide whether it’s time to change how we select appellate court judges.
