To educate the public about the ACLU's work in the defense of civil liberties, we create print and online advertising, interactive features, host audio chats and provide videos of speeches and press briefings.
On June 26, 2007, activists from all 50 states gathered in a Capitol
Hill rally to demand that Congress restore habeas corpus, fix the Military
Commissions Act, end torture and rendition and restore our constitutional rights.
Thousands gathered to hear leaders from the Senate, the House and groups including
the ACLU, Amnesty International (USA), the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights
and the National Religious Campaign Against Torture.
Delegations from every state met with Members of Congress to deliver our message
loud, clear and in person. And our coalition delivered more than 140,000 signatures
calling on Congress to restore habeas corpus, due process and all our rights.
