CEO & President of @DemocracyFwd @SkyePerryman in @TheAtlantic on Trump admin actions: "It's all in keeping with a theme: To empower one man, you need to disempower everyone else, everywhere else—including in states where laws are counter to the president’s political agenda."
“The Trump administration is undermining foundational democratic principles and turning what are supposed to be 'laboratories of democracy' into laboratories of repression,” @SkyePerryman argues: theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

The Trump admin is weaponizing immigration courts by threatening people who follow the law and appear for their hearings as directed. We are honored to represent immigrants and their legal advocates in this lawsuit against these unlawful policies. nytimes.com/2025/07/16/nyr…
We filed an emergency appeal today to block the Trump-Vance admin’s $820 million cuts to hundreds of community violence intervention, victim services, and youth criminal justice programs. This move has thrown communities across the nation into chaos.
