We Show Up: Coming Together to Fight For Civil Rights and Liberties

For over 100 years, the ÌÒ×ÓÊÓƵhas been showing up in the courts, in the streets, and in the halls of power to defend the rights that the Constitution guarantees to everyone.

In the past year alone, the ÌÒ×ÓÊÓƵcommunity fought to secure abortion rights in Michigan, defended trans youth from political attacks in Arkansas and Texas, and blocked Florida from censoring lessons about race and gender in college classrooms. With the support of our members, supporters, volunteers, and staff, we will keep showing up whenever civil rights and civil liberties are under attack.
