Proud Mama and the ACLU

Guess where my daughter is working this summer? THE ACLU. Guess who took out a full-page ad in the NYT on November 11th? The ACLU. So proud of her and her commitment to social justice. So proud of my children, period, for what they are about. So proud of this organization. So they have said, in the ad, all of Trump's promises: to amass a deportation force to remove 11 million undocumented immigrants to ban the entry of Muslims and to institute aggressive surveillance programs targeting them; to restrict the right for a woman to have an abortion; to reauthorize water boarding and other forms of torture; to change the nation's libel laws and restrict freedom of expression, are un-American, wrong-headed and-more importantly, unlawful and unconstitutional. ACLU will fight them and so will the many people in this great nation who still believe that human life and law is sacred.
