As a result of our lawsuit, guards at "Alligator Alcatraz" are required to allow people detained at the facility to call their lawyers, in accordance with the Constitution.

Trump’s unjust pardons have made us less safe.

Republicans in Congress who back him as he continues to defend dangerous pardoned rioters are choosing loyalty over public safety.
These Rs deserve to pay a price.

Our communities are not safe, and their seats are not safe. Vote them out in November!
