Keep Informed About National Civil Liberties Causes and Victories!
For the last century, the national ACLU has been the guardian for our most fundamental Constitutional rights - ensuring that our rights to free speech, privacy, to be innocent until proven guilty, and many others - are not just protected on paper, but in practice. The ACLU engages in legislative advocacy, impact litigation, and fearless organizing to ensure that these freedoms are guaranteed to every person in this country. Information about the national ACLU's work and calls to action may be found here.
