We’re calling into RD 9 and RD 22 to build support for constitutional amendments that would restore voting rights after incarceration, protect vote-by-mail and early voting, and bring same-day voter registration to Delaware.

🚨 If you haven't heard, Laurel Police have voluntarily shared a list of addresses where they encountered Haitian immigrants with the FBI. No warrant and no clear motive for the request. This is racial profiling. Full stop.

ACLU-DE Corporate Voting Lawsuit Explained! ⚖️

🚨 In Fenwick Island, the number of artificial entities registered to vote in their last election was nearly equal to the margin that decided the last election. They may have cast decisive votes, picking the winner.

That’s why we’re in court. 🗳️

⚖️ VICTORY for religious freedom in Delaware!

We’ve settled our lawsuit challenging discriminatory burial rules that blocked Muslim faith leaders from carrying out burial rites according to their beliefs.

Religious freedom means the right to practice, not just believe. ✊

🚨 ICE does NOT make our communities safer.

For months, we’ve watched ICE arrest U.S. citizens, smash car windows, and stalk people at courthouses, schools, and traffic stops. Now multiple people are dead.

➡️ Tell Governor Meyer: Close the pipeline.

🚨 Here’s the truth they don’t want you to focus on: when the administration claims these sweeps are about “dangerous criminals,” the numbers tell a very different story.

📣 Tell Governor Meyer: this ends now. Our state should not be a partner in federal overreach.

We appreciate @mattmeyerde.bsky.social giving public support for fines and fees reform. Now is the moment to turn words into action by including support for HB 132 & HB 133 in the Governor’s Recommended Budget. Delaware families are counting on it.

🚨 We'll see you in court! 🚨

Fenwick Island is giving corporations and LLCs access to the ballot box, claiming that taxpaying business entities are “stakeholders” entitled to influence local elections.

If ICE is gaining access through vague requests or quiet data-sharing, that is not an ‘exception’, it’s a breach of trust.

As the holiday approaches, join us in making space during the Thanksgiving celebration to acknowledge that all land in Delaware is Indigenous land.

Participating in Thanksgiving with integrity means moving beyond the familiar tales of kind-hearted pilgrims and one-dimensional Native Americans.

We spoke out and it worked – there’s an update in Ocean View!

After sustained public pushback, the town has introduced a revised and constitutionally sound ordinance that protects mask-wearing, spontaneous demonstrations, and accessible permitting.

🚨 TAKE ACTION 🚨

Delawareans have been clear - we do not want our law enforcement, state agencies, and personnel, and local taxpayer dollars to serve the administration’s attempts to target our immigrant neighbors.
