<p>The president of Concerned Women For America, Penny Nance, recently said that conservatives face an incredibly important battle in opposing Merrick Garland, the liberal Supreme Court pick made by Obama.</p>
<p>&ldquo;This is a very important moment in the republic. This is why the people gave the Senate back to the Republicans. This is a check and balance in a president who&rsquo;s out of control,&rdquo; Nance said.</p>
<p>Nance believes that the inclusion of Garland will threaten the preservation of the Second Amendment and traditional marriage because of his extremely liberal views.</p>
<p>The Democratic party has already begun to place pressure on both Senator Mitch McConnell and Senator Chuck Grassley to confirm Obama&rsquo;s choice. Despite this pressure, McConnell, the Senate Republican Majority Leader, told Obama that there will not be a vote held.</p>
<p>In his Senate floor speech, McConnell said, &ldquo;It seems clear that President Obama made this nomination not with the intent of seeing the nominee confirmed, but in order to politicize it for the purposes of the election.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Instead of spending more time debating an issue where we can&rsquo;t agree, let&rsquo;s keep working to address the issues where we can,&rdquo; he said, asking Obama to let the American people decide who the nominee should be.</p>
<p>When McConnell reached out to Garland via phone, he reiterated that the Senate would not discuss the matter until the next President is in office and given a nomination.</p>
<p>One organization that is pushing for Garland to be included on the Supreme Court is Planned Parenthood, who have already began to lobby the Senate to hold a vote. Planned Parenthood would benefit greatly by Garland replacing the conservative, pro-life Justice Antonin Scalia.</p>
