ACTION ALERT: We need your help. Today, and every Tuesday from now through the confirmation hearings, we will be asking you to call senators to tell them to #VOTENO on Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation. Tell them #WhatsAtStake. splcenter.org/news/2018/07/0…
And we’ve made it easy to remember. RSVP for our weekly call-in days on Facebook: facebook.com/events/2699409…
If Kavanaugh is confirmed, we’ll no longer be able to rely on the federal judiciary to protect the rights of the most vulnerable people in our country. Even worse, much of our progress toward economic, social and racial justice could be rolled back.
Trump has chosen his nominee from a list compiled by the Federalist Society and the Heritage Foundation. Without question, these groups are committed to a hard-right agenda. Our country deserves better.
Make your voice heard! Contact the senators listed here – whose votes could make the difference – and tell not to be a rubber stamp for the Federalist Society. Tell them to vote “no” on this Supreme Court nomination. #WhatsAtStake splcenter.org/news/2018/07/0…

Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation to the Supreme Court is a devastating blow.
But the truth is, Kavanaugh's just the tip of the iceberg.
For nearly two years, Trump has been stacking the federal judiciary with highly partisan judges like Kavanaugh who threaten the rights of marginalized and vulnerable people in our country. splcenter.org/news/2018/09/2…

Mississippi is 1 of only 4 states that imposes a lifetime voting ban on people with past felony convictions. We filed a lawsuit against the state earlier this year & testified at a legislative hearing in Jackson this morning. splcenter.org/news/2018/03/2…
There’s a chance Mississippi legislators could pass legislation to restore voting rights to people with past felony convictions in 2019.
“Mississippi’s disenfranchisement statute is an extension of slavery and suppression of human rights.” — SPLC’s Jody Owens

The 2018 midterm elections are 34 days away — but millions of people in Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi & Alabama won’t be able to vote. That’s why we’re working to eliminate disenfranchisement and discriminatory voting practices in the Deep South. splcenter.org/our-issues/vot…
In Florida, we’re helping secure the Voting Restoration Amendment (Amendment 4), which would restore the voting rights of 1.4 million Floridians who’ve been convicted of a felony at some point in their lives. @YesTo2ndChances splcenter.org/news/2018/01/2…
In Alabama, we’re helping people who’ve been incarcerated register to vote. Some Alabamians who have former convictions already have the right to vote — but no one told them that. We're working with @CampaignLegal to make sure they're informed. alabamavotingrights.com

Today we released a new report — No End in Sight — on why migrants give up on their U.S. immigration cases. #NoEndInSight splcenter.org/20181003/no-en…
Take Yuusuf. A teacher before fleeing Somalia, Yuusuf's passion for education put him in the crosshairs of al-Shabab. He fled, but never reached safety. He was held in US detention for 800 days. When it looked like there was #NoEndInSight, he gave up.
Take Mateo. He fled Central America after his wife’s ex-husband tried to kill him multiple times. After arriving in the US he suffered from almost constant pain, vertigo + memory loss. He knew he needed treatment, but all he got was ibuprofen. Mateo saw #NoEndInSight. He gave up.

Four members of the racist and antisemitic “Rise Above Movement” were taken into custody today and face federal charges of traveling to Charlottesville with the intent of rioting at the “Unite the Right” rally in 2017. splcenter.org/hatewatch/2018…
“In our view, they were essentially serial rioters." U.S. Attorney Thomas Cullen
The Rise Above Movement (RAM) is an SPLC designated white nationalist hate group. It is comprised of hardcore white supremacists inspired by Iidentitarian aesthetics and the European circuit of racist, neo-Nazi MMA promotions, clothing brands and football hooliganism.

“There’s a lot of work that can be done [in the criminal justice system] to fix it and it’s not just work a lawyer can do.” - SPLC’s Jonathan Barry-Blocker
