Protect Civil Rights
At Conplaint, we are dedicated to seeking justice for marginalized members of society. Through our civil rights work, we fight for equal treatment before the law on behalf of targeted individuals and communities. Our efforts span a wide range of issues, including voting rights, religious freedom, racial justice, LGBTQ+ rights, gender equity, and more. We take action through legal advocacy, coalition-building, and promoting strong hate crimes and online hate laws.
Our Civil Rights Initiatives
1. Legal Advocacy
- Voting Rights: Conplaint actively participates in voting rights cases to ensure fair and equal access to the ballot for all citizens. We stand as plaintiffs and support cases that protect the integrity of the democratic process.
- Amicus Briefs: We file or join amicus briefs in key cases concerning civil rights, including religious freedom, immigrants and refugees, racial justice, LGBTQ+ rights, and gender equity. These briefs help shape the legal landscape and protect the rights of marginalized groups.
2. Coalition Building
- Collaborative Efforts: We join and convene coalitions with other civil rights organizations to strengthen our collective impact. By working together, we can more effectively advocate for policies and laws that protect civil rights.
- Community Support: Our coalition-building efforts also focus on supporting communities targeted by discrimination and hate, ensuring they have the resources and support they need to stand up for their rights.
3. Strong Hate Crimes Laws
- Advocacy for Legislation: Conplaint advocates for robust hate crimes laws and online hate laws that provide strong protections for victims and hold perpetrators accountable. We work with lawmakers and policymakers to enact and enforce these critical laws.
- Support for Victims: We offer support to individuals and communities affected by hate crimes, providing resources and assistance to help them seek justice and recover from their experiences.
