Trump's announcement of 35% tariffs continues the pattern of attacking and undermining Canada. Did anyone think we could negotiate in good faith with a gangster regime. This is not about trade and tariffs, this is an attack on our nation.

We also expose yet another Trump lie, this time about Iran, as yet another report proves his claim of “obliterating” their enriched uranium stockpile was completely false.

Texas’ Trump-driven redistricting and a win for Maine voters

Friday, July 11

Texas’ Trump-driven redistricting  In justifying its decision to redistrict, Texas cited the DOJ’s claim that it used race in drawing its congressional map. That led civil rights groups challenging the map to charge in a new filing, reported exclusively by Democracy Docket, that state officials may have falsely testified when saying they didn’t consider race. Wyoming’s largest county finds no evidence of noncitizen voting A newly completed investigation by Wyoming’s most populous county found no evidence of noncitizen voting in the 2024 elections, undermining claims used to justify the state’s controversial proof of citizenship law.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR SPONSOR

The ACLU is relentlessly challenging the Trump administration’s unconstitutional and dangerous attacks on immigrants, LGBTQ+ people, First Amendment rights, and more. But they still need your help. Join the ACLU to defend everyone’s rights.

A win for Maine voters In a win for Maine voters and for using clear language, not euphemisms, to describe voter suppression, the state’s Supreme Court upheld language on an anti-voter ballot question. Conservative backers of the measure had challenged the language, which was approved by Secretary of State Shenna Bellows (D).   "The phrase indicating that the proposed legislation would 'end ongoing absentee voter status for seniors and people with disabilities' is accurate,” the Court said. “They are the only groups whose 'ongoing absentee voter status' will be ended by the proposed legislation." Republicans continue attack on direct democracy  Yesterday Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe (R) signed a bill that limits minimum wage increases and ensures that paid sick leave does not have to be an employer requirement. This comes after 58% of voters in the state voted last year to increase the minimum wage and require sick leave. It’s another way the GOP is weakening direct democracy – by passing laws to undermine popular measures that voters already approved.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR SPONSOR

The ACLU has filed 60+ lawsuits against the Trump administration to challenge their unconstitutional and dangerous attacks on immigrants, trans people, free speech, and more. However, the ACLU still needs your help to make sure that the President’s agenda does not go unchecked. Join the ACLU today to hold the Trump administration accountable.
