We're happy to see Biden commit to investing in community care and alternatives to policing. But we condemn all proposals that will exacerbate racial disparities, police violence, mass incarceration, and undermine our constitutional rights. Our communities deserve better. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

We also support Biden's plan to put safety in the hands of those best suited to build thriving communities: social workers and other first responders that are alternatives to policing. These preventive approaches will help keep our neighborhoods safe. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

Part of Biden’s plan gets it right — to achieve safety for all, we need to invest in social services proven to prevent violence and harm. This includes investing in education, housing, and job training, and lifting barriers to re-entry for formerly incarcerated people. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

Biden committed to fixing the racist sentencing disparity between crack and powder cocaine that has wreaked havoc on Black and Brown communities. But he also committed to repeating the mistakes of the past by creating harsh new penalties for fentanyl offenses. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

In his plan, Biden calls for hiring 100,000 additional state and local police officers — the same increase in officers as the harmful 1994 crime bill. This increase resulted in massive over-policing and rampant rights violations in our communities. More cops is not the answer. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

President Biden announced a plan, the Safer America Plan, which includes important measures that would put us on the right path — but would also put many more police officers on the streets and increase criminalization and incarceration. — PolitiTweet.org

Advocating for a person’s right to get an abortion, informing a person about how to legally get an abortion, and encouraging someone to make their own reproductive heath choices are all actions protected by the First Amendment. https://t.co/wt8ib1cGnb — PolitiTweet.org

Classroom censorship bills don't help us learn — they keep students from being able to ask important questions and freely discuss the history, viewpoints, and ideas of all communities in this country. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

US law guarantees the right to seek asylum and prohibits sending people to places where they will be persecuted or tortured. Title 42 decimated that right, sending thousands of people into danger. Tell your lawmaker: oppose all efforts to extend Title 42.https://t.co/uy8nKtZdFd — PolitiTweet.org

We will always defend our right to marriage equality — but many more LGBTQ rights are already under attack across the country. We must dream bigger. https://t.co/0DM5dYqtoq — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

The new bill decriminalizes weed at the federal level and expunges past convictions, which carry burdens that disproportionately affect Black people because they face a higher risk of arrest for possession. The Senate must act to address the harm caused by the War on Drugs. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

The government is purchasing our private, sensitive smartphone location data in order to track, identify, and investigate people. This type of access is ripe for abuse — and we won’t stop fighting to restore our privacy. https://t.co/sKgUOL06m1 — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

The government should not be allowed to buy their way around our constitutional right to privacy. https://t.co/67W6afssne — PolitiTweet.org

Lawmakers must immediately seize the opportunity to end this massive invasion of our privacy. Each day without action allows the government’s unconstitutional collection of our personal information to continue. https://t.co/7Dj5BfOrew — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

The court took this action without request from the state and outside of normal court procedures. Many people don't even know they're pregnant at six weeks. People in Georgia — and people everywhere — deserve access to abortion care without delay or interference. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

BREAKING: In an unprecedented move, an appeals court blocked a lower court's injunction on a six week abortion ban in Georgia. This allows the ban to take effect today rather than waiting the normal 28-day period for an official mandate. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

BREAKING: A federal appeals court will allow a ban on abortion at 6 weeks to take effect in Georgia later this summer. We’ll continue using every tool we have to fight for abortion access in Georgia — no one should be forced to carry a pregnancy against their will. — PolitiTweet.org

The Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe has thrown access to life-saving health care into jeopardy for millions nationwide. https://t.co/Q9h0D6noe4 — PolitiTweet.org

It’s time to divest from policing and invest in mental health care and resources for our communities. Black disabled lives matter. Disability justice is racial justice. #DisabilityPrideMonth https://t.co/t8I8F6JMVE — PolitiTweet.org

Law enforcement must stop buying its way around the Fourth Amendment. We have a constitutional right to privacy. https://t.co/js2oDBM1QG — PolitiTweet.org

Our right to provide food and water to people waiting in line to vote is protected in the First Amendment. Politicians in Georgia can't take away this right and make it harder for us to vote without a fight. https://t.co/B4hoFm3QYX — PolitiTweet.org

Around 133 million Americans live with visible or invisible disabilities — that’s 40% of the public. On this episode of At Liberty, actress and singer Ali Stroker joined us to discuss disability identity and representation in the media. https://t.co/SQ6nBRkTlY — PolitiTweet.org

Families shouldn’t have to move states in order to raise their trans kids in safe, supportive environments. We will not stop fighting alongside trans youth, their families and the doctors who provide lifesaving care. https://t.co/TjcphKprRA — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

The government is buying its way around our constitutional right to privacy by purchasing our location history and other sensitive data instead of getting a warrant. Congress must put a stop to this by passing the Fourth Amendment is Not For Sale Act. https://t.co/oslVYo6qkL — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

Apps we use every day collect and sell our most personal information, allowing the government to buy our data without us ever knowing. Today, for the first time in years, @HouseJudiciary will discuss how to make sure our privacy rights don't come with a price tag. — PolitiTweet.org
