Our latest lawsuit to protect asylum seekers.
ACLU Supporter, we're suing President Trump over his attempt to shut down asylum.
Donald Trump is falsely declaring that the families, children, and adults seeking safety at our border constitute an "invasion" – and using this declaration to justify shutting down humanitarian protections at the border.
This is a flagrantly illegal power grab – so we're suing to stop it. No president has the authority to override the protections Congress has granted to people seeking safety at the border.
The United States has long served as a refuge for people fleeing persecution abroad, as we declare proudly on the Statue of Liberty. Trump's attempted border shutdown is an affront to our history and our values, and it will impose incalculable suffering on refugees fleeing for their lives.
Thanks to supporters like you, we'll meet Donald Trump in court yet again – fighting these critical cases to ensure that no violation of our rights goes unchallenged. We'll keep you updated on the latest as this case progresses.
Thanks for fighting by our side,
The ACLU Team
