We will not allow the Trump administration to tear apart our communities. The ACLU took legal action against Trump’s first administration more than 430 times. We have the playbook to fight back – and we won't back down.

The Laken Riley Act requires ICE to put people in jail with no due process, based solely on unproven accusations — this violates the Constitution. This will enrich the private prison industry while wreaking havoc on immigrants and their families.

Birthright citizenship is guaranteed in our Constitution. It is fundamental to the United States, contributing to its economic, cultural, and political strength. We’ll see the Trump administration in court.
