Airports aren’t a testing ground for a police state.

Deploying ICE agents — without proper training and with a record of abuse — puts travelers at risk and threatens our rights.

BREAKING: We just filed an amicus brief challenging a new Arkansas law that would require all people to verify their ages with a photo ID or biometric data in order to use social media.

This law threatens our rights to free speech and privacy.

Stop ICE's Attack On Our Communities An ICE agent shot and killed Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis. This news is devastating. ICE must immediately withdraw its 2,000 agents from Minnesota and Congress must block any new funding to immigr...

The Senate votes tomorrow on giving ICE a blank check to continue its abusive and unconstitutional actions.

ICE already has massive funding — and a long record of abuse. No more taxpayer dollars for cruelty.

Tell your Senator: Vote NO. Protect our communities.

Little Rock police track you with 116 license plate readers citywide. We mapped them all. - Arkansas Times If you live in Central Arkansas and drive a vehicle, you’ve likely been photographed hundreds of times by your local police department as you go about your daily life.

Mass surveillance without transparency is not public safety. Arkansans deserve real safeguards, clear limits, and accountability when powerful tracking technologies are used — not systems that quietly log our lives and share our data far beyond our communities. arktimes.com/arkansas-blo...

When officials sent Gregory Holt (Abdul Maalik Muhammad) 1,000 miles away in retaliation for his civil rights work, we sued — and after a two-day trial, the state agreed to bring him home.

The message is clear: incarcerated people still have constitutional rights.

Arkansas' law requiring the Ten Commandments in public schools is unconstitutional — and a federal court agrees.

8 months ago 12 5 1 1

We sent a letter to all superintendents in Arkansas warning them not to display the Ten Commandments in schools after a federal judge this week ruled that a state law requiring the displays is “obviously unconstitutional.”

Every school district has an obligation to abide by the First Amendment.
