Right now, President Biden can: ✔️ Sign an executive order halting federal use of face recognition technology ✔️ Limit state and local governments’ ability to purchase the technology with federal money ✔️ Support the Facial Recognition and Biometric Technology Moratorium Act — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
Over the past two years, activists and local leaders have passed bans on government use of face recognition tech in more than a dozen cities and states. But local authorities have no power over federal agencies like the FBI or ICE, which can still use the technology anywhere. — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
Government use of this technology goes beyond law enforcement. It is already being deployed in schools, public housing, and other spaces. Face recognition tech has no place in our daily lives. It only exacerbates the systemic biases that already exist. — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
And face recognition technology would surely be used to exacerbate over-policing of communities of color, immigrant communities, poor communities, and others already bearing the brunt of the criminal enforcement system. — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
Even if face recognition tech worked perfectly, it would be a civil liberties nightmare — giving the government the ability to track us to houses of worship, protests, healthcare appointments, intimate partners’ homes — harming our rights to privacy, speech, and association. — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
These biases have real consequences that disproportionately harm Black people. Robert Williams, Michael Oliver, and Nijeer Parks are all Black men who were wrongly arrested and detained because of this technology. https://t.co/lYu1Mgvm05 — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
Study after study has confirmed this bias. One study showed that face recognition tech failed in identifying Black women nearly 1/3 of the time, but was more accurate on white men. Subsequent studies, including by @ACLU_NorCal and the government, have confirmed these findings. — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
BREAKING: We’re calling on President Biden to pause all federal government use of face recognition technology. This tech is flawed, biased against people of color, women, trans people, and more. Even if it worked exactly as advertised, it would be a nightmare. Let’s explain. — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
Bills like this are moving in different states nationwide. We refuse to live in a country that attacks trans kids, and now is the time to be loud about it. https://t.co/1wWfd4x7mh — PolitiTweet.org

In order to start the process of reconciliation, we must fully understand the impact of the institution of slavery and its legacy. It’s time our country lets a government-funded commission study the issue of reparations and make recommendations for reparations to Congress. — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
We’re still feeling the after-effects in 2021. Police brutality cuts hundreds of Black lives short every year. Hundreds of thousands of people are trapped in the mass incarceration system. COVID-19 has hit hardest in many Black communities. — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
The aftermath of enslavement left African Americans facing the terrorism of widespread lynchings and targeted massacres. Black people's lives and human dignity were denied across civic life — from criminal justice, to economic justice, to voting rights. https://t.co/gbRO58bFJH — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
The scars created by hundreds of years of chattel slavery and racially discriminatory government policies are deep and will require real resources and investment in communities that have been harmed. https://t.co/bLyM4Br3DA — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
BREAKING: Today, the House Judiciary’s Subcommittee on the Constitution, Civil Rights, and Civil Liberties hosted a hearing on HR 40, a bill that would not only study the history of slavery and racial discrimination, but also make recommendations for reparations to Congress. — PolitiTweet.org

A new government report shines a light on how broken the ICE detention system is. It showed: -Improperly opened facilities -Lack of accountability and transparency -Rampant abuse -Millions of wasted taxpayer dollars It’s time we end the ICE detention machine once and for all. — PolitiTweet.org

Es hora de que la administración Biden dé un paso por las comunidades fronterizas y se comprometa a mitigar el daño ambiental y derribar el muro. https://t.co/7PzlZxCeRk — PolitiTweet.org
ACLU @ACLU
Trump's border wall devastated border communities, the environment, and tribal sites. Biden must step up for border communities, and commit to mitigating environmental damage and tearing down the wall. https://t.co/CLq7TYafpk — PolitiTweet.org
