ACLU – RESCIND THE MUSLIM BAN

“Immediately pass legislation to rescind the illegal and unconstitutional Muslim ban and make absolutely clear that such attempts to target Muslims, or anyone on the basis of national origin, are unlawful.”

ACLU – FAIR BAIL BILL

“Hundreds of thousands of people who have not been convicted of a crime sit in jail every day in this country; many of them because they can’t afford cash bail. The justice system should not only protect those wealthy enough to buy their freedom. Cosponsor the Pretrial Integrity and Safety Act to counter the injustices in America’s cash bail system and build safer communities and stronger families.”

ACLU – BRING ACCOUNTABILITY BACK TO THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

“Restore accountability at the Department of Justice by:

  • Developing guidelines for prosecutors to shrink racial disparities, bolster accountability, and reduce mass incarceration;
  • Enforcing requirements for data collection and reporting on police-community encounters;
  • De-militarizing the police;
  • Stopping police departments from profiting by seizing individual property; and
  • Restoring community policing programs”
