January is always the time to reflect on resolutions and here at the ACLU of Utah, we have a few of our own. As the 2013 legislative session gets underway, our lawmakers are already providing us with opportunities to renew our commitment to protecting the civil liberties of all Utahns.Our 2013 resolutions are:
Promote Equality
- Press for fair and humane immigration reform.
- Encourage the passage of non-discrimination protections in housing and the workplace for all Utahns, including those who are LGBT.
Defend Liberty
- Keep politicians from coming between women and their doctors in personal medical decisions.
- Prevent politicians from using religious freedom as an excuse to break important laws such as those that protect against child abuse, domestic violence and discrimination.
Stand Up for Justice
- Protect our privacy and our personal data, including establishing guidelines and oversight regarding the use of Automatic License Plate Readers (ALPRs).
You can follow us on Twitter and Facebook to take action and help us make these resolutions a reality!
