Breaking: We urge other law enforcement agencies to follow Tremonton-Garland’s example and decline to use mass surveillance technology. Protecting civil rights and privacy is part and parcel of public safety.

It's become somewhat fashionable to read banned books! Recently, Utah politicians banned the book "Push" by Sapphire, making it the 37th book to be banned statewide.

At a recent conference attended by our Staff Attorney, Abby Cook, Idaho Supreme Court Justice Gregory Moeller delivered a keynote address about how Harper Lee’s "To Kill a Mockingbird" changed his life. This inspired Abby to revisit the book, even though she had already read it in high school and again in law school. She encourages others to do the same with any banned book.

In a world of book banning, be someone who reads books, talks about books, loves books, and gives the gift of reading to others.

ICE detention warehouses have no place in our communities. We are proud to work alongside local officials and community members who continue to fight to ensure that all Utahns, irrespective of immigration status, are safeguarded from unlawful federal actions.

There are currently between 80,000 and 100,000 Flock cameras installed across the country.

They’re in urban and rural areas, on highways, in neighborhoods, and outside your local hardware store. We’re pushing back against this mass warrantless surveillance.
Join the movement to tell Flock and other ALPR companies: “Get The Flock Out!”

From legislation surrounding vote by mail to landmark cases protecting reproductive rights and fighting book bans, Brittney Nystrom has led the ACLU of Utah with unwavering dedication and tireless advocacy for the past decade. We sat down to ask her a few questions about the ever changing landscape of civil rights and liberties in Utah as the fight for liberty and justice for all remains as relevant as ever. Thank you to Brittney for 10 years of remarkable public service 🎊
