Standing behind a podium and in front of a white sign that reads "PROTECT IMMIGRANTS FAMILIES," our policy director Chelsea-Infinity is holding a microphone and speaking to the crowd in front of her (not pictured).

Summary

Join ACLU-CT and CT For All to learn about how Governor Lamont can effectively create protections against Connecticut National Guard deployment.

Earlier this year, we witnessed the Trump administration use the National Guard in a deeply disturbing and dangerous way when he ordered the deployment of National Guard troops to several states. These deployments have and will continue to result in countless violations of people’s basic rights and liberties across the country.

There is something Governor Lamont can do about it. We need Governor Lamont to protect and serve the people of Connecticut by signing an executive order that will set clear guardrails to prevent the Trump administration from misusing Connecticut’s National Guard.

Now is the time to protect Connecticut residents and ensure that President Trump cannot deploy federal national guard troops into our neighborhoods.

The event will be recorded and will have live Spanish translation.
