Friends, this is exactly why we fight: Today, the court blocked Donald Trump’s illegal data grab.
The Trump administration was demanding that states turn over the personal, sensitive data of millions of low-income families who rely on SNAP to put food on the table — and threatening loss of funding if they don’t comply.
But there are long-standing state and federal laws that ensure when people apply for nutritional assistance, their private information won’t be used for unrelated purposes.
Demanding this kind of data sharing is against the law, so Rob took the President to court — and with today’s order, we’ve secured a major step forward in the fight against Trump’s mass surveillance agenda.
Today proves what’s possible when we fight back — but Rob can’t keep up this movement for justice without your support. Will you donate today to fund our fight?
Forcing states to choose between feeding families and protecting their privacy isn’t just illegal — it’s cruel. California won’t stand for it.
When Trump and his allies abuse their power and trample our rights and freedoms, AGs like Rob are the first and last line of defense.
