Take action – stop the ACTIVE Act.
Friend –

Our safety matters, and so do our civil rights. But the D.C. Council might soon pass a bill that puts both at risk. The ACTIVE Act, which the Council is now considering, is not a true "public safety" bill. It's an "abuse of power" bill that threatens our fundamental liberties with warrantless searches and expanded pretrial detention.

Tell D.C. Councilmembers to say NO to abuse of power and to stop the ACTIVE Act. <[link removed]>

If passed, the ACTIVE Act would open the floodgates for dangerous and ineffective police stops that violate people's rights, waste resources, and damage community trust in police.  The ACTIVE Act would also expand pretrial detention – a severe restriction that should be used very rarely in a free society.

Take Action <[link removed]>

We can stop this "abuse of power" bill. The D.C. Council's Committee on the Judiciary and Public Safety will hold a hearing on the ACTIVE Act on November 8.

Take action now <[link removed]> to protect civil rights and liberties in the District.

Thanks for all you do,

ACLU of the District of Columbia
