On March 31, 2020, the ACLU provided materials to the President’s Commission on Law Enforcement and the Administration of Justice as it formulates recommendations around law enforcement and the criminal legal system. The ACLU is disappointed that the Commission representation is exclusively law enforcement and that civil rights and civil liberties stakeholders are not formally represented. The ACLU is also troubled by the Commission’s decision to change the public submission deadline from May 30, 2020 to March 31, 2020 in the wake of the COVID-19 epidemic.

Every month, you'll receive regular roundups of the most important civil rights and civil liberties developments. Remember: a well-informed citizenry is the best defense against tyranny.
