The ACLU of Missouri dares to create a more perfect union — beyond one person, party, or side. We defend the rights to equality, liberty, and justice for all.
Missouri, we just made history! We the people passed Amendment 3 to protect reproductive freedom and end the first ban put in effect after Roe was overturned.
To @MissouriRevenue: LGBTQ+ people deserve answers, not silence. 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈 Ten organizations signed a letter sent to the DOR on Tuesday, December 5. It demanded they sit down with us to create a path forward for all people in MO to be able to have accurate state-issued IDs.
Forcing public schools to display the Ten Commandments is a waste of public resources and a clear violation of the 1st Amendment's Establishment Clause.
Today, we are in court with @PPGreatPlains and @ppgreatrivers asking a judge to block the enforcement of Missouri's abortion ban and several medically unnecessary restrictions that prevented Missourians from receiving abortion care.
Missouri court permanently strikes down unconstitutional restrictions criminalizing voter engagement efforts.
“Civic engagement organizations play an essential role in encouraging and enabling all eligible Missourians to participate in our democracy.”
Everyone should have fundamental rights. And the ACLU is the organization fighting across the nation to protect civil liberties.
Help us raise $250,000 this Giving Tuesday to ensure the fights ahead are fully funded.

Missouri voter advocates condemned a ruling Monday by Cole County Circuit Court upholding a law that unconstitutionally burdens Missouri voters by further restricting Missouri’s photo ID requirements to vote.
We will appeal.

A Circuit Court has refused to halt enforcement of Missouri’s discriminatory law that bars transgender adolescents from receiving gender-affirming medical care & prohibits Medicaid coverage for gender-affirming medical care for transgender people of any age.
We will appeal.
Missourians value our liberty. If, and when, state actors try to further use the power of the government to target communities with oppressive restrictions, we will be there to fight back. At the ACLU of Missouri, we show up and fight for the liberty of all people.
Yesterday, Missourians voted to protect reproductive freedom. Today, we filed a lawsuit with our friends at @PPGreatPlains and @ppgreatrivers to restore access to abortion rights.
If you requested an absentee ballot to vote by mail and forgot to mail it back, you can return it in-person to your local election authority. It must be submitted by 7 p.m. on November 5th to count. Contact your local election authority for more information.
Missourians have the opportunity to end these tragic stories and protect reproductive freedom, including access to abortion, birth control, and miscarriage care, by voting YES on Amendment 3. Polls are open! https://t.co/46x9rSCRXN
