The Defender, August 2018

August 13, 2018

The August 2018 Edition of the Defender includes:

  • The ACLU-VT 2018 Voter Guide for this year's state's attorney elections. Elected prosecutors wield tremendous power, and it's up to all of us to know who they are and hold them accountable - the same as with any other public official.
     
  • A recap of the successful effort to stop Governor Scott from censoring social media users who expressed criticism of the governor on his official Facebook page.
     
  • Litigation updates, including a recent appearance at the Vermont Supreme Court and our FOIA lawsuit to uncover records of ICE and Border Patrol operations across all of northern New England.
     
  • Information about the upcoming 2018 ACLU of Vermont Annual Meeting and Board Election.
