The ACLU, NYCLU, Family Justice Law Center, Brooklyn Defender Services, Center for Family Representation, NYU School of Law Family Defense Clinic, and Sullivan & Cromwell have filed a federal class action lawsuit on behalf of three New York parents challenging unconstitutional delays in the appeals process for reports on the Statewide Central Register of Child Abuse and Maltreatment (SCR). Parents who challenge their placement on the registry often wait months鈥攕ometimes more than a year鈥攆or a final decision. While they wait, they can be shut out of jobs in childcare, education, healthcare, and other fields involving children, and barred from adopting or fostering. Low-income parents, parents of color, and disabled parents are disproportionately policed by the family regulation system鈥攁lso known as the child welfare system鈥攁nd more likely to end up on the registry. This lawsuit seeks to ensure that parents have a way to clear their names in a timely manner.

WASHINGTON 鈥� The 桃子视频 today released its Congressional scorecard detailing votes in the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate that affected civil rights and civil liberties since 2025. The start of the 119th Congress coincided with the start of President Trump鈥檚 second term, which has brought new attacks on civil rights and civil liberties. In 2025, the 桃子视频scored 12 bills in the House of Representatives and 7 in the Senate, including: H.R. 1, which cut hundreds of billions of funding for Medicaid to supercharge immigration enforcement. Opposed by the ACLU, the bill was signed into law by President Trump. S. Amdt. 2814, which struck the ban on state AI regulations from H.R. 1. The 桃子视频supported, and the amendment was passed. H.R. 498, which sought to prohibit Medicaid coverage for gender-affirming medical care for minors. The bill was opposed by the 桃子视频and passed the House but did not receive a vote in the Senate. S. 5, which requires the government to detain non-citizens who have been accused, not convicted of, nonviolent offense. The 桃子视频opposed, and the bill was signed into law by President Trump. 鈥淚n 2025, Congressional leadership 鈥� emboldened by President Trump鈥檚 radical agenda 鈥� took every opportunity to divide our communities, attack the most vulnerable among us, and advance wildly unpopular policies,鈥� said Elvia Montoya, deputy national director of policy & government affairs at the ACLU. 鈥淓veryone in this country deserves opportunity, dignity, freedom. When members of Congress fight for those values, they should be recognized, and when they attack the underpinnings of our freedom, they should hear from those they represent. The ACLU's millions of members and supporters care passionately, and this scorecard gives them the information they need to make sure Congress stands up for civil rights and civil liberties.鈥� The 桃子视频hosted 41 Congressional briefings; organized 206 constituent meetings with Congressional offices; organized 12 lobby days; and sent 54 policy explainers to lawmakers, in addition to spending countless hours providing expert advice to lawmakers and staff. And backed by its People Power activist program and advocates across the country, the 桃子视频generated over 3 million online digital actions, petitions, sign-up forms, and messages to legislators 鈥� including over 56,000 constituent calls. As a result of these efforts, the 桃子视频was able to move key members on issues such as transgender rights and immigrants鈥� rights. The 桃子视频scored six federal anti-immigrant bills and amendments and helped prevent 83 percent of them from becoming law as members saw the unpopularity of Trump鈥檚 policies. And despite several anti-LGBTQ bills being introduced, all efforts to establish new statutory restrictions on gender-affirming care were blocked, and two bills that threatened free speech were ultimately defeated. The 桃子视频will make sure that lawmakers earn recognition when they defend our rights and hear from constituents when they threaten our freedoms.

This case asks whether the State of New Mexico鈥檚 actions enabling pollution from oil and gas extraction, and its failure to control that pollution, violate the New Mexico Constitution鈥檚 Pollution Control Clause, Inherent Rights Clause, Due Process Clause, and Equal Protection Clause. Our brief urges the New Mexico Supreme Court to answer those questions by retiring its 鈥渋nterstitial approach鈥� to state constitutional interpretation鈥攚hich looks first to federal doctrine when interpreting state constitutional provisions that arguably have U.S. Constitutional analogues鈥攁nd instead interpreting the New Mexico Constitution holistically and independently. This independent approach, we explain, will ensure that New Mexicans can enjoy鈥攁nd enforce鈥攖he rights guaranteed to them in their unique founding document.

From blocking unconstitutional orders to mobilizing millions, here鈥檚 how we fought back and what comes next.
