Last week the ACLU of Colorado hosted its annual Lobby Day. Over one hundred community lobbyists came out to defend civil liberties for all Coloradans. We interviewed several people and asked them what brought them to the Capitol. We also have an update from Staff Attorney Arash Jahanian on the class action lawsuit filed against El Paso County Sheriff Bill Elder for illegally holding prisoners for ICE. Call To Action: President Trump’s pick for CIA director has a dark history of leading state-sponsored torture – and the Senate must not even start her confirmation hearings until that history is declassified and publicly released. http://bit.ly/haspelrecord Call To Action: A bill was recently introduced in the Colorado legislature that is one of the most mean-spirited, blatantly anti-LGBT bills to be introduced in the Colorado State Legislature in years, and one of the most hateful and despicable attacks on gay, lesbian, and trans people that our state has ever seen. Call the sponsors of the HB18-1206 bill. Prime Sponsors: Rep. Stephen Humphrey- 303-866-2943 Rep. Kevin Lundberg - 303-866-4853 Additional Sponsors: Rep. J. Becker- 303-866-3706 Rep. J.
