We cannot have American boots on the ground in Iran.

Photo of an ad on a bus stop that reads "'All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.' 14th Amendment. Constitution of the United States. ACLU. Learn more at aclu.org/barbara. Paid for by the American Civil Liberties Union, Inc."

👀 Spotted in DC: We're reminding our government what the Constitution says about birthright citizenship.

We are here in Washington once again witnessing the complete train wreck that is the Republican Party.

"KNOW YOUR RIGHTS: RECORDING FEDERAL AGENTS IN PUBLIC. You have the right to photograph or film anything in plain view, including federal buildings and law enforcement, so long as you aren't trespassing or violating a lawful order. If you're not under arrest, law enforcement needs a warrant to confiscate or search your device. If you're arrested, officers still need a warrant to search your device's contents. The government may never lawfully delete your photos or videos. While the Constitution protects your right to record and helps you defend against unjustified retaliation or arrest, the exercise of this right can still carry risks. ACLU."

"Tips for recording federal agents from ACLU organizers. Capture relevant details including agents’ names, badge numbers, documents, and any weapons they’re carrying. Capture context like the surrounding area. Record continuous video to capture the full sequence of events. Copy your photos or videos to other devices so they can’t be lost or deleted. Don’t delete the originals. Try to share your documentation with the impacted individual’s loved ones, their attorney, or local organizations working with impacted community members." Arrow pointing right.

"Tips to protect your digital privacy from ACLU legal experts. Turn off all biometric functions to unlock your phone, including fingerprint and face recognition. Ensure your phone has a strong password. Keep your phone in airplane mode when you don’t need to communicate with others. Turn off location services unless you’re actively using an app that needs access to your location. Communicate with others using secure, encrypted messaging apps."

We have the right to record ICE agents, police, and other government officials at work in public.

Read up on your rights and our tips to get ready for Saturday's No Kings protests.

See you tomorrow!

Well put.

Stop Anti-Voter Bills Now The SAVE Act, the SAVE America Act, and MEGA Act could keep millions of eligible U.S. citizens from being able to vote. Urge Congress to reject these bills.

President Trump has made one of his top priorities disenfranchising millions of eligible citizens ahead of the midterms — but we have a real chance to stop him.

Tell your Senators to protect our freedom to vote by rejecting the SAVE America Act.

Today, Hudson Regional Health is closing Christ Hospital. This reckless action is against the objections of the Mayor, the City Council, and the people of Jersey City. This fight is not over. We are calling on the Governor and the Attorney General to act now. #JerseyCity #HealthcareIsAHumanRight

The purpose of this Order is to ensure the CFPB operates as Congress intended— fully funded and able to ensure that consumers have access to “fair, transparent, and competitive” markets for consumer financial products; not subject to ever-changing Director fiat.

NEWS: Judge rules Russ Vought's plan to defund and shut down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is arbitrary, capricious, and contrary to law.

We're honored to represent former Federal Reserve officials in support of this case.

NJ Average Gas Prices
1 Month ago. $2.915
Today. $3.492

The cost isn't as important as the lives lost but it is going to be hard for people who are already struggling.

N.J.’s governor just blamed Trump for rising gas prices. ‘He seems to be the only one making money.’ Gov. Mikie Sherrill took direct aim at President Donald Trump, saying working families are paying the price for his foreign policy.

Christ Hospital's emergency room is days away from being closed for good without drastic measures. Please join in solidarity to save the hospital by coming out on Thursday at 10AM. #jerseycity #jerseycityheights #christhospital #knittygrittyjc

We're sure that they'll say "sure."

Civil Rights Groups, New Jersey Voters File Motion to Protect Voters’ Privacy - ACLU of New Jersey The DOJ’s request for New Jersey’s unredacted voter rolls threatens voter privacy and could enable voter disenfranchisement.

BREAKING: we’re taking action to prevent the DOJ from obtaining New Jersey voters’ personal data.

The DOJ’s demand for NJ’s unredacted voter rolls is a dangerous attempt by the Trump administration to disenfranchise voters, especially within our most vulnerable communities.

We'll see you in court.

I left the classified briefing on Iran even more concerned about what comes next as Trump drags us into what's so clearly a war.

Every Member of Congress needs to understand that the upcoming War Powers Resolution vote will be a defining vote — just like the Iraq War vote that defined a generation of politicians.

But our elected officials won’t understand how significant the vote is unless they hear and feel the outrage now.

Save the date! #nokings #jerseycity

White text: "Tell Congress: No unconstitutional war with Iran". ACLU logo. Photos of the Capitol and military troops. Dark red background.

Tell your members of Congress: Vote YES on the Khanna-Massie War Powers Resolution and end President Trump’s unconstitutional and unauthorized use of military force against Iran.
