Defend Human Rights in the Second Trump Administration 

President Trump’s policies have already had devastating consequences on the lives of people in the U.S. and beyond.

A few months into his second term, President Trump has led with cruelty and chaos, creating a human rights emergency that has affected millions of people by suppressing dissent, undermining the rule of law, and eroding norms and institutions essential to the protection of human rights.

From demonizing and targeting immigrants to retreating from multilateral bodies that protect human rights around the world, the Trump administration has been systematically eroding human rights protections, fostering a climate of fear and division, and undermining the rule of law.

As the oldest and largest grassroots human rights organization in the world, we are ready to defend human rights, like we have always done, no matter who is in the White House. With YOU, our members, by our side, we will expose abuse, organize, protect human rights, and turn despair into hope.

No government is beyond scrutiny. No situation is beyond hope. 

Our movement was made for moments like this. We know what we’re up against – we’ve been fighting leaders who attack human rights for decades. We’re in this fight for the long haul, and we’ll do it together. We can and must use our collective power to defend human rights and protect our most vulnerable communities, here and around the world.
