Many of these regulations, such as loitering bans and property maintenance rules, have no bearing on public safety and their enforcement fuels a vicious cycle of poverty and criminalization. — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
State and local governments shouldn’t fund their operations through law enforcement, period. — PolitiTweet.org

Penalties for nonpayment include driver’s license suspension, arrest, and even incarceration. The burden of this system falls primarily on Black and Brown communities who are already over-policed. https://t.co/IobAUocDHk — PolitiTweet.org

When governments create laws to generate revenue from tickets, fines, and fees, this can lead to policing for profit. People can be charged hundreds of dollars and when they can’t pay, they are punished. — PolitiTweet.org

Every day, millions of Americans are forced to drive with suspended licenses because of a government imposed debt they can’t afford to pay. Debt-based license suspensions don’t protect public safety, they undermine it. The Driving for Opportunity Act can help put a stop to this. — PolitiTweet.org

Canceling student debt can help secure financial stability and mobility for people of color — especially Black Americans, who are disproportionately burdened by loans — while addressing the debt crisis for millions of all Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Today’s vote has been decades in the making. It’s a testament to the unflinching leadership of women of color and reproductive justice organizations that have been fighting to end abortion coverage bans for years. https://t.co/FnfW3CPjAn — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU
Ending the Hyde Amendment and related abortion restrictions is a racial and economic justice issue. Hyde has always been a racist policy aimed at controlling the bodies of people with low incomes and people of color. https://t.co/2TYc6rrP1s — PolitiTweet.org

BREAKING: The US House just took a historic vote, passing a spending bill without the Hyde and Weldon Amendments — moving us one step closer to eliminating these harmful abortion restrictions for good. When we all can access the abortion care we need, our communities thrive. — PolitiTweet.org

The Better Care Better Jobs Act would increase funding for home and community based services, allowing people with disabilities and seniors to live in their own homes and improve protections for home care workers. It's time to invest in our communities. https://t.co/uyiQX4ahgp — PolitiTweet.org

Too many pregnant workers face insurmountable obstacles at work. Ask your Senators to co-sponsor the bipartisan Pregnant Workers Fairness Act and help protect the health and economic security of pregnant workers everywhere. https://t.co/hl7iwyNoMA — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
We urge Senate Committee members to vote yes on the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act. No one should have to choose between a healthy pregnancy and their job. — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act would make it clear that employers must work with pregnant employees to find reasonable accommodations that would enable us to keep working while maintaining a healthy pregnancy. — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
Next Tuesday the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee will — for the first time — hold a meeting and take a vote on the bipartisan Pregnant Workers Fairness Act. This critical bill will protect the health, rights, and economic security of pregnant workers. — PolitiTweet.org

Call your Congressperson at (202) 224-3121 and tell them to vote YES on the Lofgren-Massie amendment to H.R. 4505. — PolitiTweet.org

For years, the government has been invading our privacy by conducting warrantless backdoor searches of data collected under Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. This must end. — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
Today Congress is voting on an amendment that would protect our texts, emails, and other private communications from warrantless FBI surveillance. — PolitiTweet.org

The mental health advocacy movement fights discrimination and stigma, opposes forced treatment, and supports access to mental health care for all. All people deserve support and autonomy to lead self-directed lives. #disabilitypridemonth https://t.co/KvqF2xC7Kt — PolitiTweet.org

But we need action, including a swift end to Title 42 expulsions, the Trump — and now Biden — policy that weaponizes the pandemic to effectively close the borders to the vast majority of people seeking safety in the US. — PolitiTweet.org

We appreciate that the administration recognizes the legitimacy of asylum and once again reiterates its commitment to restoring our asylum system. — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
Asylum seekers should not be detained and should have a fair chance to make their claims before an immigration judge. This new processing system for families can and must uphold those principles. — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
Without strong measures to hold CBP accountable, this system could deprive many families of their right to seek safety in the US. CBP has a long history of misreporting whether people fear return to their countries of origin — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
Today, the Biden administration announced a new system for processing families arriving at the border that relies on the unfair and inhumane practice of expedited removal. https://t.co/fDXyPQF25k — PolitiTweet.org
