** CLC Wins Victory for Late-Jailed Voters in Ohio ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------

People who are in jail before their trial have the right to vote. A person’s ability to cast a ballot should not be determined by the date of their arrest or their ability to pay bail.

On Nov. 6, 2019, a federal judge ruled in a lawsuit brought by CLC and partners in Ohio, ordering the state to discontinue its practice of disenfranchising eligible voters arrested and held in pre-trial detention in the final days preceding an election. The system was denying eligible voters their First Amendment and Fourteenth Amendment rights.


** CLC Calls for Investigation of Trump Super PAC America First Action for Illegally Coordinating Spending ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
If a super PAC knows when the campaigns it is supporting are running ads, it can strategically time and target its ads to complement the campaigns’ own efforts. That makes the super PAC's ads anything but “independent.”


** CLC Urges Georgia Secretary of State to Halt Planned Voter Registration Purge ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
We have grave concerns regarding the planned purge of over 300,000 Georgia voters from the voter registration list.


** Giuliani Should Comply with Federal Ethics Laws Due to Assigned Role in U.S. Ukraine Diplomacy ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
Rudy Giuliani has been tasked with conducting U.S. foreign policy while retaining unknown private clients, and should be subject to the conflict of interest laws that apply to federal employees.


** The Bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee Rightly Recognizes the Need for Online Political Ad Transparency ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
Federal transparency rules for political ads are woefully outdated. It is vital that we update our transparency laws to reflect current technology — and to guard against foreign interference.
