ACRU Files Amicus Brief in Watson v. Republican National Committee

The American Constitutional Rights Union has filed an amicus curiae brief with the United States Supreme Court in Watson v. Republican National Committee (No. 24-1260), joining the Public Interest Legal Foundation in support of the Respondents. The case centers on a straightforward but consequential question: does federal law require that ballots be received by Election Day? The Mississippi Secretary of State argues states can extend ballot receipt deadlines beyond Election Day. The Respondents, and ACRU, say no.

The Second Amendment Doesn’t Have an Asterisk

FBI Director Kash Patel’s recent comments about firearms at protests sparked a needed reminder: the Bill of Rights isn’t a buffet.

Those congressmen enacted a fatally flawed NVRA that not only facilitates vote fraud but also results in legal aliens mistakenly voting and putting themselves at risk of jail or deportation, despite the legislation’s flaws being pointed out at the time.

ACRU Files Amicus Brief to Uphold Immigration Law

ACRU strongly believes that the rule of law is foundational to a well-functioning and safe society. ACRU asserts that without the ability to rid society of criminal aliens who have violated the law, this rule of law is unable to be upheld. ACRU further believes that state and local law enforcement is empowered to work with the federal government to uphold this rule of law, and that the ability to continue to detain criminals who are wanted by the federal government is of paramount importance.
