Tell Your Reps: Co-Sponsor The Fight Book Bans Act

Most recent signers:

As book-banning efforts threaten the First Amendment rights of students across the country, the ACLU is supporting the Fight Book Bans Act to help protect students' right to learn free from government censorship. Book bans disproportionately target stories about LGBTQ+ communities and people of color and are proven to harm students' ability to access information, learn about new perspectives, and participate in free and open discussions.

Students' First Amendment rights don't stop at the schoolhouse gates. This legislation would help protect free speech and free expression in schools by enabling the Department of Education to provide grants to the brave school districts fighting these undemocratic censorship attempts. Tell Congress: Protect students' right to learn and co-sponsor the Fight Book Bans Act today.

ABOUT HONORIFIC TITLES

Many public officials use "web mail forms" that this system will send your message to, so you don't have to visit their web sites to communicate with them. The systems that some of these officials use requires that the honorific field be used (Mr., Mrs., Miss, etc.).

Unfortunately, we do not have control of which honorific titles are presented as options. We must adhere to what the officials are using in order for your message to be delivered.

Alternate salutation *

Most elected officials’ constituent email systems accept a very limited set of salutations. Please select the one you would most prefer.
