ACLU Supporter –

To say that 2020 has been "unpredictable" is to say the least about this year.

The persistence of COVID-19 as it exacerbates racial and economic inequities. A long-overdue reckoning with the violent, systemic oppression against our Black communities. Federal agents' unlawful attacks on press and protesters alike. November's critical election still to come.

As every unforeseeable event unfolds around us, we at the ACLU know one certainty that has enabled us to respond quickly and decisively no matter what: The reliable support of our monthly donors – our Guardians of Liberty. And because, truly, anything could happen in the coming months, we are rallying passionate supporters like you: Please, take your commitment further and pledge a monthly gift before September.

By becoming a monthly supporter, you will be the foundation that enables us to fight on multiple fronts – providing the resources it takes to handle any sudden crises. Together, we can:

* Press for a bold reimagining of the role of law enforcement in America, including efforts to cut police department budgets and dismantle the Department of Homeland Security – while pushing to reinvest in services that help rather than harm communities of color.

* Defend free speech by educating protesters about their rights, deploying legal observers, and going to court to protect the rights of protesters and journalists whenever they are violated – whether by local police, federal authorities, or our president.

* Challenge voter suppression aimed at people of color, poor people, young adults, and the elderly while also pressing for access to voting by mail and expanded early voting in the pandemic – so come this November, everyone can vote like our rights depend on it.

ACLU Supporter, if 2020 has shown us anything, it's that there's no telling what could come next. But we promise that with your steady help as a new monthly supporter, we will be ready to fight.

In the face of uncertainty four years ago, the ACLU promised Trump we'd hold him accountable. And we did. We've now filed 400 legal actions against his administration. We were there to defend our Constitutional rights then – and we'll do so again.

Your commitment every month will ensure that we remain strong – against the unknown and at every urgent moment – no matter what. So please, become a monthly supporter today and join us in the long, sustained fight for civil liberties.

Thank you for your support,

Anthony D. Romero
Executive Director, ACLU

P.S. I can't thank you enough for the support you've already lent to the ACLU at such a turbulent time. In this high-stakes period, our team is committed to being more daring than ever, pushing the envelope to protect democracy. I hope you'll commit to helping drive that work forward by becoming a monthly Guardian of Liberty today.
