The civil liberties stories and cases taken on by the ACLU are often shocking. We have taken on cases of children held in solitary confinement, a teacher fired after expressing breast milk for her baby at work, and a man killed by state patrol officers after they entered his home without a warrant. It is hard to believe such things happen, but they do. Fortunately, the ACLU of Colorado is here to respond, working more effectively than ever. We won victories in all of those cases and brought about long-term changes in policy in each case.

The ACLU of Colorado had a very productive year in 2013-2014, with victories in free speech and criminal justice legal cases, significant progress on limiting the use of ICE detainers in county jails, and landmark legislation to end debtor’s prison practices and the warehousing of seriously mentally ill prisoners in solitary confinement.
