Today marks the 29th anniversary of the National Voter Registration Act. The NVRA made voter registration more accessible for millions of Americans. Although we’ve made progress since it was passed in 1993, there is still so much more we can do. ⬇️ — PolitiTweet.org

In 2014, the US government wrongly prosecuted Sherry Chen as part of a broader pattern of discrimination directed at Asian Americans that continues to this day. This #AAPIHeritageMonth, we continue our fight for justice for Ms. Chen and so many other Asian American scientists. https://t.co/I2gj1gYC59 — PolitiTweet.org

BREAKING: A federal court in Kentucky ruled that the state cannot prohibit abortion providers from providing time-sensitive care. The court blocked several restrictions, including a 15-week ban. Abortion is legal and available in Kentucky — we'll fight to keep it that way. — PolitiTweet.org

287(g) is a racist policy that extends ICE's power to local law enforcement officials. We sat down with local organizers fighting against this cruel program. https://t.co/1unF2WIi5a — PolitiTweet.org

People should have the power to make health decisions that are best for them, including whether to end a pregnancy, without interference from politicians. We won’t stop fighting for our right to abortion. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

We’ve seen bills like this before in Texas. Laws that cut off abortion access are laws that force pregnancy on people against their will. And by allowing almost anyone to sue, this ban exposes doctors, abortion funds, and even friends and family to bounties of at least $10,000. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

This follows a bill politicians passed earlier this year that banned abortion at six weeks, before many know they're pregnant. The results have been devastating. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

BREAKING: Oklahoma's legislature just sent a bill to the governor which would ban abortion entirely, effective immediately. It also deputizes private citizens to act as bounty hunters. Politicians aren't waiting for the Supreme Court's ruling to block our access to abortion. — PolitiTweet.org

Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha’s work centers on stories of queer and trans people of color, abuse survivors, mixed-race people, and the South Asian and Sri Lankan diaspora.

ACLU @ACLU

For decades, privacy and civil rights activists have pushed for warrant requirements for various forms of electronic surveillance. The criminalization of abortion care shows us those protections don't go far enough. https://t.co/n52CjTmSMe — PolitiTweet.org

Abortion bans are designed to cause chaos and confusion, increasing abortion stigma and decreasing the likelihood of people seeking care. The effects of this will fall most heavily on marginalized communities. https://t.co/Cm31uvaguK — PolitiTweet.org

If the Texas law is allowed to take hold, it will have a chilling effect on publishers of all kinds — and the justifications for this law could be extended to other platforms, like newspapers and magazines. We can’t let that happen. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

The First Amendment protects social media platforms’ editorial judgments, just as it protects those of newspapers and magazines. Without this protection, all social media platforms would be forced to speak with the same voice — the one the Texas government prefers. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

If this ban on content moderation is allowed to go into effect, it would run directly against the Supreme Court’s established precedent protecting editorial discretion, and it could wreak havoc on users’ experiences on social media. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

Today, we and @ACLUTx have joined an amicus brief to the Supreme Court urging the court to block a Texas law which would prohibit social media platforms from moderating users’ posts due to their content. — PolitiTweet.org

As the Supreme Court nears a ruling that could allow abortion to be criminalized by politicians, privacy activists and lawmakers must shift our approach in the states. https://t.co/r5yiSsJ7DH — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

The First Amendment protects your right to free speech, and no politician can force businesses to post harmful and hateful language against their will. This ruling is a victory for free speech, Tennessee businesses, and transgender Tennesseans. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

This law was a bold attempt to disrupt trans-inclusive businesses. Today’s decision ensures that the establishments who want to welcome trans people are not forced to become tools for politicians’ discrimination. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

VICTORY: A federal judge has struck down a Tennessee law that tried to force businesses to post discriminatory language if they let transgender customers use their restrooms. Transgender people belong, and Tennessee government can’t force you to say otherwise. — PolitiTweet.org
