So these a$$holes from Patriot Front just marched through our beautiful town. While I support their 1st amendment right to PEACEFUL assembly…I also support our right to flip them off!
In West Virginia, police who are fired or allowed to resign "in lieu of termination" due to misconduct are allowed to switch departments. Our latest story from @WilliamKyleVass uses public records to show where these officers go and what they've done. dragline.org/stories/in-lie…
BREAKING: President Biden just signed into law a bill that will effectively ban TikTok. We'll keep saying it: This ban directly violates the First Amendment rights of the over 170 million Americans who use the platform.
The Supreme Court heard arguments today in Johnson v. Grants Pass. The outcome of the case is crucial in West Virginia, where officials are attacking visible poverty. The problem? They’re only attacking the “visible” part. westvirginiawatch.com/2024/04/19/arr…
Universities, and @Columbia in particular, have a long tradition of student advocacy, where viewpoints are tested and debate is encouraged. Columbia rushing to call the cops on their own students for demonstrating on campus betrays that legacy. nytimes.com/live/2024/04/1…
Breaking: The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals has blocked West Virginia's trans athlete ban, ruling that it violates Title IX. This is a huge victory for our client Becky and other kids like her who just want to participate in sports like everyone else.
Evangelicals undermine science in education (Opinion) | Op-Ed Commentaries | wvgazettemail.com "Public educators who conflate a license to discuss intelligent design with the unconstitutional promotion of religious beliefs place districts in legal and financial jeopardy."
All children have a right to an education - including those with disabilities and fragile immune systems and those who are too young to get vaccinated. That's why we applaud the governor's veto of HB 5105.
🚨 On March 26, in partnership with @ACLU_WV, we're sending buses to Washington, D.C. to demand the Supreme Court protect access to mifepristone, one of two drugs commonly used in a medication abortion. RSVP to reserve your spot ➡️ bit.ly/WVMobilization
While we do not support blanket vaccine mandates in all cases, we also do not see a civil liberties problem when it comes to the current vaccine policies in West Virginia schools. Tell the governor to protect West Virginia's "shining example." acluwv.org/en/news/gov-ju…
BREAKING: The House of Representatives just passed a bill that would effectively ban TikTok in the United States, violating the free speech rights of millions of Americans who use the platform daily to communicate and stay informed.
Victory! West Virginia politicians may have spent a lot of time this session demonizing undocumented people, but when the clock struck midnight last night, not a single anti-immigrant bill had made it to the governor’s desk for signature.
We’re still celebrating all the bad bills that died in the Legislature last night: ❌ Women’s fake bill of rights ❌ All bills further restricting abortion and gender-affirming care ❌ More guns in schools ❌ Jailing librarians ❌ Harsh school discipline involving police
Victory! The Legislature has adjourned Sine Die without passing the Women’s Fake Bill of Rights (an anti-trans bathroom bill that did not confer any rights to women)
SB 280 has passed. An earlier version allowed the teaching of intelligent design, but amendments were adopted making the language less clear. We’ll be watching closely. If this bill results in teachers pushing creationism in the classroom, we’ll see the state in court.
💥 New lows! Our ED, Margaret, was just called up to speak on the Women's Bill of Rights by Sen. Caputo, and the committee voted NO! A man in favor of it was allowed time at the podium. Madness!

Today was my day off and my kids 5&3 year old requested a trip to the Forks of Coal nature center. 🐿️
Happy to see these new students join the @ACLU_WV Club!
A friendly reminder as session begins today that there are *thousands* of bills introduced each year and only a couple hundred are seriously considered. Even fewer become law!! Do not waste energy getting upset about things before they gain traction. These 60 days are very long!
I’ve met reverend Jim Lewis a handful of times and every time he has been working or fighting for people less fortunate than him. This city needs manna meal.
VIDEO: "Show me how you treat poor people and I'll show you what kind of community it is." The Reverend Jim Lewis, who helped found Manna Meal in the 1970s, shares his thoughts on the political pressure to close Charleston's only daily feeding program.
@ACLU_WV Reverend Lewis must be deeply offended by this but he keeps the essential calmness and humanity that has made him a wonderful community leader for 50 years.
@ACLU_WV Wonderful video. Shameful it has to be made. Has this been posted anywhere that I could share it to insta stories?
"I want to see city council stand up. I want to see the mayor stand up."
VIDEO: "Show me how you treat poor people and I'll show you what kind of community it is." The Reverend Jim Lewis, who helped found Manna Meal in the 1970s, shares his thoughts on the political pressure to close Charleston's only daily feeding program.
Charleston is so lucky to have Jim Lewis, any community would be lucky to have him. We should all strive to be more like Jim Lewis every day and we should make sure Manna Meal continues to have a permanent indoor home in downtown Charleston.

BREAKING: A Montana state court judge just blocked a ban on gender affirming care for trans youth. The judge found that this ban is unlikely to survive any level of constitutional review.
VICTORY: A federal judge has declared Texas’ drag ban unconstitutional. LGBTQIA+ Texans, venue owners, performers, and our allies all came together to uphold free expression in our state — and we won. This work isn’t done but for now we celebrate. Long live Texas drag!
Next do the newspaper.
Kanawha County Democrat Doug Skaff is stepping down as minority leader of the state House of Delegates, he announced Wednesday morning. westvirginiawatch.com/briefs/kanawha…
THRILLED to announce that we've affiliated with the Washington Baltimore News Guild! We first noticed @WBNG32035 for its role in fighting for workers at ACLU-KY, ACLU-MS, and ACLU-LA under the banner of @ACLUSouthUnited. We (@acluwvunited) rise in solidarity with that movement.
@cgoodwoman @BlackByGodWV Crystal, the work you do matters more than you know. You’re bringing visibility to a community often left out of the broader conversation. You are one of my favorite sources in Black Media. We need you. Please let us know how to support you so you can press on.
@cgoodwoman @BlackByGodWV Because @cgoodwoman you are that light, that inspiration, that storyteller, THAT woman who fixes another woman’s crown, without telling the world that it was crooked. Our fragile world needs you and your voice. @BlackByGodWV
@cgoodwoman @BlackByGodWV in tears reading these comments . I remember quite vividly you telling me that you were going to just start a newspaper because it was needed and YOU DID IT. You don’t just say things. You did that shit ! You bring them into fruition. You!!! I will never underestimate you
Some news: I’m joining the new @statesnewsroom in West Virginia, where I will write about state politics and continue my reporting on child welfare and other vulnerable populations. It’s launching later this year, and I’m thrilled WV will have more watchdog journalism.
❤️ shout out to @ACLU_WV for all they do. Thank you to your organization and the wonderful, empathetic and giving people willing to help mountaineers who need it most find safety, help and resources. Thank you.
For the fourth summer in a row, LGBTQ+ young people from all over West Virginia will gather this August to learn from LGBTQ+ leaders in the state and gain skills in organizing and self-advocacy. wvgazettemail.com/news/aclus-cam…
