HB 2867 and HB 2880 would curb free speech at a time when we must firmly protect the right to dissent from government views. Take action: tell your state senator to oppose these bills.

Arizona executed Aaron Gunches today. The decision to resume the death penalty is a shameful mark in Arizona's history. Repeatedly, the death penalty has been proven to be inhumane, inequitable, and unjust.

Congressman Grijalva, rest in power. Thank you for leaving a legacy that made our state a better place for all Arizonans.

BREAKING: A judge permanently blocked the state’s 15-week abortion ban. This is an important milestone to protect abortion access in AZ. We will continue working with providers & partners to ensure that all laws fall in line with the will of the people.

Yesenia and her children fled violence seeking safety, only to be torn apart by the U.S. immigration system. Border Patrol's treatment of Yesenia was a violation of basic rights and human decency. Families belong together, not torn apart by cruel deportation policies.

Regardless of your citizenship or immigration status, you have guaranteed rights under the Constitution. Join us to learn your rights if you are approached by law enforcement.

Election reform cannot come at the expense of Arizona's effective and overwhelmingly supported early voting system. This veto was the right move to protect our access to the ballot box.

Arizona voters made it clear when they passed Prop 139: they overwhelmingly support the right to abortion. But lawmakers are already trying to infringe on our hard-won rights.

SB 1268 is a dangerous bill that will generate fear and discourage people from seeking critical care. Healthcare is a human right, not a tool for surveilling undocumented communities. www.kjzz.org/politics/202...

Arizonans rely on vote centers, voting by mail, and dropping off their mail-in ballot up until Election Day. We deserve consistent voting laws that give every eligible voter the opportunity to cast their vote. Take action to protect our right to vote! action.aclu.org/send-message...

We are thrilled to announce that Victoria López will be our next Executive Director! Her appointment comes at a time when Arizona needs fierce, compassionate leadership the most. With Victoria, we are ready to ramp up our fight to protect civil rights and liberties. www.acluaz.org/en/press-rel...

Our offices will be closed from December 21 to January 5 while we take a break to rest and recharge before the new year. We hope you have a safe and joyful holiday season!

Our DNA reveals so much about us and our genetic privacy must be protected. Today's decision by the court will safeguard Arizonans from warrantless searches and unconstitutional intrusion. www.aclu.org/press-releas...

Today, the ACLU is headed to the Supreme Court to defend our rights in U.S. v. Skrmetti, a case that could shape the future of healthcare access for trans youth. This isn’t just about the state of Tennessee. It’s about the right to essential care for all. www.aclu.org/news/lgbtq-r...

Arizonans know how to organize for a better future, and have overcome some of the most harmful attempts to erode our freedoms. The ACLU of Arizona, along with our local and national partners, are more prepared than ever to meet the moment. www.acluaz.org/en/news/2024...

We know what a Trump administration means for immigrant communities in Arizona and our nation as a whole. Congress must act now to cut DHS immigration enforcement funding. Tell Congress to stop the Trump Administration from conducting mass deportations: action.aclu.org/send-message...
