Uphold civil liberties and democratic values, reject discrimination

America's founding principles of liberty and justice for all are being undermined by proposed policies that target U.S. citizens based on their beliefs or backgrounds. These authoritarian tactics amount to a violation of constitutional rights like freedom of speech, enabled by the profit motives of the private prison industry. We must reject any measures that discriminate against our own people and uphold the values of a free and democratic society. Protecting civil liberties is crucial to maintaining our identity as a nation of laws and human rights.
