STOP STARVING GAZA NOW: The people of Gaza have called on us to act. We are joining the call to people of conscience to stand against the U.S.-backed Israeli-manufactured famine in Gaza. People of all age groups are being gruesomely starved, with deaths due to malnutrition on the rise every day.

This is Benjamin Netanyahu’s third visit to DC this year.

War criminals should not be welcomed by any president or Congress.

He should be held accountable for his crimes, not platformed. Beyond shameful.

BREAKING: A federal judge finds Trump’s order banning transgender people from getting accurate passports is likely unconstitutional.

The court ordered the State Department to allow correct gender markers for our clients as we continue to argue until this order is blocked for everyone.

The Human Toll of Trump's Anti-Trans Crusade | ACLU President Donald Trump’s assault on transgender rights is a gross overreach of presidential power and yet another attempt to punish trans people just for existing.

President Trump's executive actions are having real-world consequences for trans youth and the families who love them.

No one should have to navigate court battles to access necessary medical care.

Right now there is clear, overwhelming opposition to Mahmoud Khalil’s abduction across the moderate, liberal, progressive & left spectrum. This kind of loud unity is what authoritarians are afraid of. To keep it up we need every institution & public leader to join the chorus.

I talk a big game about self care but imma level with you all: I haven't drunk more than a couple glasses of water and a mug of tea today even though I can feel my thirst and the water bottle is right there. This shit is hard.

Drink up, ladies. Can't build a better future without hydrating.

A Valentine's Day card reading "Say it with barricades"

Love is a quality of attention, a sensitivity to the world and everything that is possible in it.

When we fight on the basis of what we love, rather than in service of ideology or cowardice, we open ourselves to serve as a channel through which everything beautiful in the world can defend itself.

BREAKING: A federal court temporarily blocked President Trump’s executive order aiming to restrict access to gender-affirming medical care for transgender people under age 19 nationwide.

This is a major victory for our freedom to access life-saving care.

What is an Executive Order and How Does it Work? | ACLU What executive orders can – and cannot – do, and why we have them in the first place

We Choose To Fight: Action Call · Indivisible This Sunday night, February 2 at 8pm ET/5pm PT, you’re invited to join Indivisible, MoveOn, Working Families Party, and a coalition of other organizations for an action call. During the call, you will...

I just signed up for this @indivisible.org call. They're literally our best bet right now for traditional political/electoral action, imo. Please consider joining me. mobilize.us/s/0x5dTb

Trump signs executive order to curtail gender transition for people under 19 Move is latest push by Trump to reverse policies set by the Biden administration to protect transgender people

Trans people have always been here. No executive order will change that.

Trying to coerce medical providers to stop life-saving care is an unprecedented abuse of federal power.

This will not take immediate effect, and the ACLU will not let this policy stand.
