Stand With Labor Unions Defending Free Speech

In a courageous stand for democracy, free expression, and human rights, a coalition of labor unions is taking the Trump administration to court — challenging its unconstitutional surveillance of immigrants’ social media activity.

The American Federation of Teachers, Communications Workers of America, and United Auto Workers, represented by the Electronic Frontier Foundation, have filed a powerful lawsuit to stop Trump’s policy of monitoring and punishing visa holders and immigrants for what they say online. This dangerous program has created fear and silence among communities who contribute to our country every day — simply because they dared to speak their minds.

Their lawsuit makes it clear: the First Amendment protects everyone from government retaliation based on their beliefs. Censorship and intimidation have no place in a free society. By standing up, these unions are fighting for transparency, fairness, and the right of all people — immigrant or citizen — to express themselves without fear.

Add your name to applaud these unions for defending free speech, protecting immigrant communities, and standing strong against government overreach and political censorship.
