Last night, the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the 2012 DACA memo is unlawful. This ruling doesn’t take away anyone’s current DACA protections. However, it lets state officials continue their effort to end the program. https://t.co/V6ILUlLdF6 — PolitiTweet.org

We have a constitutional right to record police. We’ll keep fighting Arizona’s attempts to criminalize and cut off an important tool for holding police accountable.https://t.co/qfbFpIBGfz — PolitiTweet.org

This is horrific. Banning abortion has far-reaching impacts on essential health care. Everyone deserves the ability to access the critical care they need, without politicians intervening.https://t.co/j54IkZvwYh — PolitiTweet.org

Pedro Zamora dedicated his life to fighting the stigma and discrimination toward the LGBTQ community and people living with HIV. We honor his courage and legacy by continuing the fight today. #HispanicHeritageMonth https://t.co/F39cFtuxlR — PolitiTweet.org

The web of abortion laws has created chaos and confusion in Arizona. People deserve clarity on when they can access life-saving reproductive health care.https://t.co/DvfSRcHyzS — PolitiTweet.org

Forcing hospitals to choose between accepting aid needed to serve patients and providing the health care many trans youth depend on is beyond cruel. Trans youth deserve to grow up as who they are.https://t.co/ZSKRiSVBvS — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

We deserve access to essential, reproductive health care in every zip code. Until then, the fight continues to bring care to people who need it.https://t.co/4Ok5Ke4quM — PolitiTweet.org

Our freedom should never depend on our finances. Advocates across the country are fighting to eliminate prosecution fees, probation fees, and more. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

Good. Abortion bans continue to push life-saving health care out of reach across the country — we need leaders from the local, state, and federal level to do everything in their power to shore up access.https://t.co/tSbFvLwK85 — PolitiTweet.org

Over 300,000 people are at risk of deportation and family separation because of cruel Trump-era terminations. Inmigrantes inscritos en el programa de Estatus de Protección Temporal necesitan un acuerdo justo. — PolitiTweet.org

Mifepristone is a safe and essential medication for both miscarriage and abortion care. Health care providers should be free to prescribe the medications that are best for their patients. Full stop. — PolitiTweet.org

Forcing asylum seekers to abandon the few possessions they have at the border strips people of their humanity. This cruel, unnecessary practice must end. https://t.co/7PdeQLL1qG — PolitiTweet.org

There are many, many reasons people seek abortions — and every one of them is valid. You deserve to make decisions over your own body and future. https://t.co/owyY85tph3 — PolitiTweet.org

When unchecked, artificial intelligence exacerbates existing societal disparities and causes real life harm. We need this bill of rights to protect us against the use of faulty and discriminatory AI that infringes on our core rights and freedoms. https://t.co/EbuIpRnz6x — PolitiTweet.org

BREAKING: We're suing Arizona to restore access to abortion through 15 weeks after a 150-year-old total ban on care was reinstated 10 days ago. The confusing web of abortion bans has created chaos for people seeking reproductive care — we need clarity before more harm is caused. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

The Supreme Court must make clear: ▪️ The executive branch cannot invoke “state secrets” to escape accountability ▪️ NSA surveillance is not beyond the reach of our public courts. ▪️ The state secrets privilege is not a get-out-of-jail-free card to spy on the public. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

Judges have long acted as a crucial check on unlawful executive actions. A group of former judges note that since Aaron Burr’s 1807 trial for treason, the Court has repeatedly reaffirmed judges’ authority to evaluate the government’s secrecy claims. https://t.co/igmQTRCQDB — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

Legal expert Laura Donohue emphasized in her brief the government’s disturbing history of using the state secrets doctrine to conceal abuses — and how this practice will only worsen if the Supreme Court doesn’t act. https://t.co/SSKAacrnzr https://t.co/tLMMvRHjKw — PolitiTweet.org

A broad coalition of civil society groups told the Supreme Court why it’s vital that the courts hear cases challenging sweeping surveillance programs — like this one — that affect millions of Americans. And what’s at stake if they don’t. https://t.co/sD0wBo4JVB — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

Although the government touted its commitment to transparency after Edward Snowden exposed the NSA’s vast spying apparatus in 2013, it has argued in court that this spying program is too secret for our lawsuit to continue. That’s simply not true. https://t.co/v9E7dvgVyp — PolitiTweet.org

ICYMI: Legal experts, civil society groups, and former federal judges are asking the Supreme Court to hear Wikimedia v. NSA, our long-standing case challenging the NSA's unconstitutional monitoring of Americans’ international internet communications. Here’s what’s happening: — PolitiTweet.org

Biases are embedded in our health care system — and they disproportionately harm Black patients and other patients of color seeking treatment. https://t.co/KtVwyktyto — PolitiTweet.org

A lower court has already found that Alabama's plan violates Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which protects against racial discrimination in voting. It’s essential for the Supreme Court to uphold the VRA and require Alabama to redraw the maps fairly. https://t.co/fMw8FYlWcm — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

Black voters deserve to be heard — we make up 27% of Alabama’s population, yet elect only 14% of the state’s representatives. Our democracy works best when we have fair representation. Racial discrimination in voting can’t be excused or ignored. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

We’re at the Supreme Court this morning challenging Alabama’s new congressional maps in Merrill v. Milligan. The district lines reinforce discrimination in voting, diluting Black voting power and denying Black voters the opportunity to elect representatives of their choice. — PolitiTweet.org

Along with local advocates, we're fighting the transfer of teens to Angola, an adult prison notorious for human and civil rights abuses. Children don’t belong in prison — Louisiana needs to abandon this plan. https://t.co/rSHa2B9Sv7 — PolitiTweet.org
