ACLU Statement on Forcible Removal of U.S. Senator Padilla
This week alone, we’ve witnessed immigration raids and attacks on protesters, but the assault on the nation’s most senior Latino leader paints a vivid picture of an administration that is increasingly unleashed and behaving like thuggish autocrats.
As part of our work, the ACLU of Southern California issues reports, position papers and advocacy materials that study and note developments in civil liberties. Below is a listing of some of our publications organized by issue.
The ACLU of Southern California is prepared for whatever challenges and opportunities lie ahead—no matter who occupies the White House or sits on the Supreme Court. This report illustrates the collective power of our ACLU community to shape the future of our region, state, and nation.
Thanks to your partnership, the ACLU is equipped to face the most powerful opponents and protect the most vulnerable people. Never before have we battled such sustained assaults on so many fronts—or been more prepared to do so. While the hostile attacks are not stopping, neither is the ACLU.
The ACLU of Southern California is celebrating its centennial anniversary, marking 100 years of relentless, trailblazing advocacy in the courts, in legislative chambers, and in our communities.
