Tell Congress: No more money to cruel immigration enforcement.
ACLU Supporter, did you see the news?
The Senate just passed a bill that includes $170 BILLION in funding for President Trump's anti-immigrant agenda. Now, the bill heads to the House for a FINAL vote, which means we are running out of time to stop it.
The last thing we need is more resources devoted to this administration's violent, destabilizing, and unconstitutional mass deportation plans. That's why we're urgently asking you to join us in calling on Congress to VOTE NO on this dangerous bill. <[link removed]>

ACLU Supporter, last week, the Supreme Court issued a ruling that could allow the government to deny citizenship to certain American-born children – so the ACLU is suing again. While our legal team fights in court, help us take the fight to Congress – protect immigrants' rights now. <[link removed]>

The Supreme Court's ruling doesn't allow President Trump's clearly unconstitutional order restricting birthright citizenship to go into effect immediately. But it creates a real risk that in late July, the order can start to be implemented and deny citizenship to many children born in the United States – even though every court to have considered the issue has found the order unconstitutional, and not a single justice on the Supreme Court has suggested otherwise.
That's because the ruling restricts the ways in which courts can block likely unconstitutional policies nationwide. But critically, the Court did not restrict the availability of nationwide injunctions in class action lawsuits – so that's exactly what we're pursuing.
Within hours of the Supreme Court's ruling, we filed a nationwide class-action lawsuit against President Trump's executive order restricting birthright citizenship.
But the attacks on immigrants aren't just playing out in courtrooms. Right now, Congress is considering giving $170 billion to supercharge President Trump's anti-immigrant agenda – not only giving him the resources to enforce this dangerous order, but also accelerating his inhumane deportation plans, putting our immigrant neighbors and loved ones at risk. This bill includes $45 billion to fund an additional 750,000 detention beds – including for pregnant and immigrant parents with US citizen kids. Tell Congress: No more money to cruel immigration enforcement. <[link removed]>
We're urging the courts to act quickly to issue nationwide relief and protect children's citizenship while our cases continue. Even partial enforcement of President Trump's order would be a disaster and a blatant violation of our Constitution – and we'll continue fighting to make sure President Trump cannot trample on the citizenship rights of a single child.
Thank you for being with us,
The ACLU Team
