President Trump just lost at the Supreme Court on a signature executive order he signed on day one of his presidency. He tried rewriting the Constitution to redefine who is a citizen — and we stopped him.

Today's Supreme Court ruling reaffirmed what millions of Americans have always known: The Constitution, and years of federal law protect our right to birthright citizenship.

Birthright citizenship will remain the law of the land, and there's nothing President Trump can do about it.

The Supreme Court just closed the door on President Trump’s day one attempt to end birthright citizenship. The president doesn’t have the power to rewrite the Constitution.

Justice Jackson is right. This is thankfully the end of the road for President Trump and his allies' unconstitutional attempt to rewrite the 14th Amendment. Birthright citizenship is a settled case — again.

As we celebrate our win at the Supreme Court in the case defending birthright citizenship, we want to thank our partners who fought tirelessly to defend this essential right: @aclumaine.bsky.social, @aclum.bsky.social, ACLU of New Hampshire, @asianlawcaucus.org 🧵

NEW: We sent a letter urging Congress to oppose a dangerous bill that will lead to online censorship and endanger the privacy of internet users nationwide. Censorship and surveillance won't keep kids safe.

BREAKING: Federal courts have prevented the DOJ from seizing private data on millions of voters in New Hampshire and Pennsylvania. Courts have now blocked the Trump administration from illegally accessing voter data 11 out of 11 times.

Public schools should be places where all students feel welcome, not where children are pressured into religious instruction.

When Sam O’Hara first spotted National Guard members on patrol in D.C., he quickly decided how he would protest: Darth Vader’s theme music. But one Guard member didn’t seem amused. He called D.C. police who detained O’Hara. The ACLU just sued and won.

Trans kids should be able to exist freely, fully, and joyfully.

Automatic license plate readers track our every move and funnel our personal information into enormous databases that police can access to spy on us without a warrant. Surveillance company Flock Safety is the largest provider of these cameras — it's time we get all of them out of our communities.

57 years ago today, queer people resisted a police raid at a gay bar in NYC. These activists bravely defended their right to exist in the face of government oppression, causing a major turning point for LGBTQ rights. We honor Stonewall's legacy as we continue the work for liberation.

The United Nations is calling for independent investigations after at least 50 people have died in ICE custody since President Trump began his second term. The death rate is higher than it's been in over a decade, and this year is already on track to be worse than 2025. This is unconscionable.

ATF’s decision to cancel a contract for a surveillance tool that enables warrantless tracking of our cell phones is a victory for all of our constitutional rights. Other law enforcement agencies must follow suit.

When a DC resident was handcuffed for playing the "Imperial March" from Star Wars while walking behind National Guard troops, @aclu-dc.bsky.social sued. The partial settlement in this case is a win for free speech. We get to mock the government however we want.

Nothing can stop our fight alongside our communities for Black voters to have fair representation.

Today’s victory is another demonstration of the folly of Donald Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops to patrol D.C.

When our plaintiff Jim Obergefell lost his husband John in 2013, he was denied being listed as John's spouse on his death certificate. We took his case to the Supreme Court, who in 2015 ruled in Jim’s favor and established marriage equality for same-sex couples everywhere in the United States.

Trans youth deserve to be themselves, without political interference.
