The Trump Regime and Republican lawmakers are trying to force people of conscience to choose between leaving folks unfed now or taking away healthcare for 2026. It’s a false and unnecessary choice!

Offer help if you can. (ACFB is also a resource for folks who need help.)

Did you cancel your Disney+ subscription because you’re sick of the Regime violating the 1st Amendment?

Then sign this petition to free Mario Guevara, an Atlanta journalist who is about to be illegally deported because his reporting on immigration and law enforcement is "dangerous." 👇
Speakers during a press conference this week included ACLU GA Senior Staff Attorney Andres Lopez-Delgado, and Guevara's son, who shared how he is faring with health challenges without his dad to support him and the family.

Endorsement Tracker: Who’s endorsing who in Atlanta’s municipal elections?
With just seven weeks to go until Atlanta’s Nov. 4 municipal elections, 59 candidates for school board, mayor, city council president and city council are jockeying for key endorsements that could sway voters from local civic leaders, political advocacy groups, and unions. While all citywide elections are nonpartisan, Atlanta voters and elected officials lean heavily Democratic. Here are the endorsements we’ve tracked so far:

“So, the rise of these industrial-scale computing facilities that are needed for A.I. and other Internet applications is certainly one of the factors driving up prices.”

@warnock.senate.gov, remind Georgia voters how important the Public Service Commission election is! Everyone can vote for the two open seats on November 4.
