Recently the Commerce Department announced that it will disband its abusive security unit, after a Senate report detailed how the unit had "opened frivolous investigations" and had broadly scrutinized Asian American employees without any basis. — PolitiTweet.org

The Commerce Department has done nothing to remedy or even acknowledge the harms and injustices suffered by Chen, even though the criminal case fell apart and her termination was found to be unlawful. — PolitiTweet.org

After publicly arresting her in front of colleagues and telling her that she faced a maximum penalty of 25 years in prison and $1 million in fines, it dropped all charges on the eve of trial. — PolitiTweet.org

Based on the unit’s investigation, the Justice Department accused Chen of unlawfully downloading sensitive government data, falsely painting her as a spy. — PolitiTweet.org

We’re joining scientist Sherry Chen’s lawsuit against the US government. A rogue security unit within the Commerce Department unlawfully investigated and arrested Chen as part of a broad pattern of discrimination directed at Asian Americans. https://t.co/pA9NpiVyIH — PolitiTweet.org

Texas is refusing John Ramirez from practicing his faith as the state puts him to death. This is a cruel violation of his religious liberties. https://t.co/z4GRW8k0Lf — PolitiTweet.org

By denying Puerto Rico residents access to Supplemental Security Income benefits, Congress continues a discriminatory pattern of giving residents of US territories — overwhelmingly, people of color — second-class status. https://t.co/1oeFwZZLn8 — PolitiTweet.org

John Ramirez’s final request is to have his pastor touch him and pray aloud over him as he is put to death. Refusing to honor this request is an unconscionable violation of his civil liberties. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, the Supreme Court is hearing arguments in a case that could uphold the rights of Puerto Rico residents. People who live in Puerto Rico are entitled to live under the full protections of the US Constitution. Period. https://t.co/UQkZkijkau — PolitiTweet.org

Texas’ refusal to let John Ramirez practice his faith in his final moments is a cruel and unconscionable violation of his civil liberties. https://t.co/2SNZfg5KBZ — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

The Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act provides federal protections for the religious practices of people who are incarcerated, including those facing execution. The legal ability to execute people does not mean Texas can trample other fundamental rights. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

State chaplains delivering audible prayers and placing their hands on people during their final moments has been common practice in Texas. There’s no good reason that Mr. Ramirez’s pastor can’t do the same. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

We filed an amicus brief with the Supreme Court on behalf of spiritual advisors who have been present in the death chamber during executions. This is a matter of religious liberty. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

Texas plans to execute John Ramirez. He has one modest request for the end of his life — that his longtime pastor be able to lay hands on him and pray aloud as he is put to death. Texas is trying to refuse him that right. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

It’s unconscionable that Texas is denying John Ramirez the ability to practice his faith at the most critical spiritual moment imaginable. https://t.co/DaXNq8Tw0L — PolitiTweet.org

Tomorrow, the Supreme Court will hear arguments in Ramirez v. Collier, a case that will determine if John Ramirez can have his pastor pray aloud and lay hands on him as he is executed in a Texas prison. Denying this request is a cruel violation of his religious liberties. — PolitiTweet.org

The FBI illegally targeted and surveilled Muslims in Southern California. Then, they tried to shut the courthouse doors on our clients, claiming that we couldn't sue over their religious discrimination because it could reveal state secrets. https://t.co/36qXFGPpfS — PolitiTweet.org

Without privacy, there is no freedom. FBI v. Fazaga involves a challenge to the FBI’s unlawful surveillance of Muslim Americans. On Monday, it will be heard by the Supreme Court. We sat down with plaintiff Yasser Abdelrahim to discuss the case. https://t.co/2n7vBtg68v — PolitiTweet.org
