If President Biden truly means to center human rights, he needs to end the lethal force-first approach of the last 20 years, and also end this country's program of lethal strikes even outside recognized battlefields. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

In this strike, we see the echoes of so many other civilian lives lost and gravely harmed. The US record on lethal strikes is generally a refusal to acknowledge families' devastating losses and no amends whatsoever, even when evidence of wrongdoing is staring us in the face. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

Today's announcement confirms what the family members of those shockingly and tragically killed in Kabul were saying from the outset: The United States wrongly killed their loved ones. This strike should be an inflection point and wake-up call at long last. — PolitiTweet.org

As of June 30, 2021, you no longer need to show medical documentation to establish or update the gender designation on your US passport, which will now include an X designation. The State Department will share information about the process by early 2022. https://t.co/nMOsiFl3DS — PolitiTweet.org

These new restrictions are an improvement over existing policies. But these restrictions alone don’t address the excessive power and resources that lead to unnecessary police contact, especially in Black and Brown communities. https://t.co/KK7gqONsR4 — PolitiTweet.org

There is still much work to do to improve conditions in prisons and jails, even 50 years after Attica. https://t.co/EE1pJDcKag — PolitiTweet.org

Censoring books is antithetical to our First Amendment rights. And when those books are exclusively by or about people of color, no one's fooled. All young people deserve the right to read and learn in schools, free from censorship or discrimination. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

We will continue to fight anti-trans legislation — next week in the Texas legislature’s special session and every other week. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

BREAKING: A federal court just ordered the Biden administration to stop expelling immigrant families under Title 42. The policy, initiated under Trump, unlawfully strips people of the right to seek asylum by expelling them without a hearing under the guise of public health. — PolitiTweet.org

It's long past time to close Guantanamo and end indefinite military detention. Add your name to our petition now. https://t.co/GgFtGmbOe0 — PolitiTweet.org

Mohamedou Ould Slahi was tortured and detained without charge or trial at the Guantanamo Bay prison for almost fourteen years before being released in 2016. The Mauritanian, the Golden Globe award-winning film, tells his story. https://t.co/KXnQ1dA59J — PolitiTweet.org

As millions of children head back to school, some states have banned mask mandates on school grounds. We’re suing in South Carolina and Iowa on behalf of groups of parents of children with disabilities. We discuss what’s at stake on At Liberty. https://t.co/0M60GXJBvU — PolitiTweet.org

Our government needs to make good on its promises. ✅ close Guantánamo ✅ reckon with its use of torture ✅ end unlawful lethal strikes Here’s how to make those goals a reality. https://t.co/lVGuGlDuPu — PolitiTweet.org

How do we hold algorithms accountable for discrimination? We discuss the consequences of algorithmic bias on this episode of At Liberty. https://t.co/8U8QOG3sbm — PolitiTweet.org

Even though we lost in court today, we will continue to fight for Americans’ right to privacy and free expression. We must be able to access the Internet without fear of government surveillance. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

Congress has made clear that the courts can and should decide whether this warrantless digital dragnet complies with the Constitution. And yet, to date, not a single challenge to Upstream surveillance has ever been allowed to go forward. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

Although the court held that Wikimedia had provided evidence that its communications with millions of users around the world are subject to NSA surveillance, the court said further litigation would expose sensitive information about the NSA's spying activities. We disagree. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

We sued on behalf of the organization, challenging the NSA's "Upstream" surveillance of internet communications — one of the mass spying programs revealed by Edward Snowden. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

In a disappointing ruling today, a federal appeals court dismissed our client @Wikimedia's challenge to the mass surveillance of Americans' international emails, messaging, and web browsing. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

The Biden administration has made good on its promise to provide trans and non-binary people with accurate passports. Trans and non-binary people should have access to accurate federal IDs across the federal government. We know who we are. https://t.co/sOKz8yC8vS — PolitiTweet.org

Under Trump’s Muslim ban and other discriminatory travel bans, entry through the Diversity Visa program was blocked for thousands of people awarded a path to legal permanent residency. Now, those barred from entry have to apply again to win US visas — but Biden can change that. https://t.co/dFbbp1m4LS — PolitiTweet.org

The NYPD’s Strategic Response Group shouldn’t be using violence to force people protesting police violence off the street.  The streets belong to the people. — PolitiTweet.org

This is good news. Texas is trying to force a massive expansion of immigration enforcement. As the court explains, this is baseless. — PolitiTweet.org

1,683 children are born into poverty every day in the United States. The current child tax credit will cut child poverty in half. Let’s make it permanent. https://t.co/8dWksC03Xq — PolitiTweet.org

All forms of immigration are integral to the fabric of American life. The diversity visa program is a critical part of that. https://t.co/17vBFqVAxu — PolitiTweet.org

Texas’ radical abortion ban blocks pregnant people from accessing care. The law is unconstitutional. It must be stopped. https://t.co/f5gxreBABX — PolitiTweet.org
