This is what we’re up against: the strategic erasure of Black voters and the deliberate dismantling of their collective power. It’s unethical, it’s cowardly, and it’s proof of just how powerful our voices are when we vote.

Oral arguments were heard Wednesday at the Supreme Court in Louisiana v. Callais, seeking to limit the voting power of Black voters in Louisiana and to dismantle one of the few remaining provisions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, Section 2, protecting against racial discrimination in voting.

🛑 Authoritarian tactics aren’t the answer to public safety.
Read the latest from our Executive Director, Mike Brickner: 🔗

Across the U.S., the ACLU is tracking more than 615 bills targeting LGBTQ+ people and many of these bills also threaten the rights of people with intersex traits.
Everyone in every body deserves the right to live openly and authentically, free from discrimination or political attacks.
Every ominous headline takes a toll. Every funding cut deepens the fear. But let’s be clear: LGBTQIA+ people deserve safety, dignity, and joy in Delaware and beyond.
Together, we refuse to let hate define the future.
✨ Birthing people in Delaware and across the country deserve uninterrupted access to reproductive healthcare including abortion. These rights should already be guaranteed, but we’re still fighting to protect them. Reproductive freedom isn’t up for debate, it’s a fundamental right.
