We won't allow politicians to dilute the power of Black voters in Louisiana or anywhere else.
About us
The ACLU is an non-profit, non-partisan organization of people who believe in the power of action. We are united by the quest – “We the people dare to create a more perfect union.” Whether in the courts, statehouses, Congress or communities, we fight to defend the rights that the Constitution guarantees to all of us —regardless of who we are, where we come from, whom we love, or what we believe. Together, we take up the toughest civil rights and liberties challenges of our time. We seek to inspire those who want change to become the ones who make change.

Last year, the Supreme Court ruled unanimously in favor of our client, the NRA, that the government cannot punish organizations for disfavored political speech. Whether it's private television companies or nonprofit organizations, any government attempt to pressure an organization or individual to stop its speech because of its viewpoint violates the First Amendment — and the highest court in our nation agrees.
