On Sunday, a 93-year-old couple sitting on folding chairs they had brought to a beach in Oxnard, California, got a rude awakening to the draconian policies implemented by the state when a policeman approached them and asked them to get off the chairs and sit on the ground if they wanted to remain where they […]

We hope you will read and share this informative article.

Guns, fish and liberties are good to go in one California county

By ACRU Staff|2023-03-06T12:10:38-05:00April 20th, 2020|

Unlike the Governor of Michigan who uses a top-down tyrannical approach to shutting down local industries, this CA county gets it right. In Del Norte County, local officials have made their COVID-19 decisions ... locally ... and deemed fishing and hunting essential, and decided that banning guns and fishing rods does nothing to halt the spread of a virus. Well done, Del Norte. We hope other officials take notice.

Free exercise of religion cannot catch COVID-19

By ACRU Staff|2023-03-06T12:10:38-05:00April 20th, 2020|

In a month of religious observances for Christians, Jews and Muslims, AG Bill Barr again shows his willingness to fight for religious liberty where it is NOT found. The left's hostility toward people of faith is not new, but liberals using a virus as a reason to tamp down freedom to worship is. As faith leaders find innovative ways to meet that pose no threat to viral spread, local authorities have no business ticketing people in cars during drive-in services, for example. We are glad that our AG agrees.

It may be your home but you can’t live in it during COVID-19

By ACRU Staff|2023-03-06T12:10:38-05:00April 20th, 2020|

Yet another liberty to take a hit during COVID-19 is property rights. Just as MI governor Whitmer blocks home owners from their second home-cabin-trailer up north in Michigan, the government of North Carolina is telling owners of beach homes that they can't live in their own residences. It is unlikely that either state will be sending rebates to home owners who can't access homes on which they pay taxes.

Maybe we should move Michigan’s Governor to the “closed” section

By ACRU Staff|2023-03-06T12:10:39-05:00April 20th, 2020|

Calling Gretchen Whitmer "the worst Governor in America" while many governors are overstepping lawful and moral boundaries while blaming a deadly virus is quite a "compliment." This American Spectator piece details why so many are calling her restrictions, "insane." Michiganders, pick up your modern pitchforks (Letters to the Editor, emails to your Governor and legislators) and let everyone know the Governor's bridge is way too far.

Socialism’s nitwits and dangers in the time of pandemic

By ACRU Staff|2023-03-06T12:10:39-05:00April 20th, 2020|

Larry Reed, President Emeritus of the Foundation for Economic Education, provides us with an important primer on socialism in the time of a pandemic - its hypocrisy, its foolishness, and its cruelty. Larry names and shames those who would use temporary, unique, unprecedented COVID-19 financial relief as an excuse to fill liberal goodie bags with other peoples' money-in perpetuity. That's a big "no" for Larry, ACRU, and other thinking freedom lovers.

Police Threaten, Arrest North Carolina Protesters Demanding America Reopen

Police arrested protesters at a #reopenNC rally in North Carolina, where restless citizens demanding businesses be reopened gathered in protest of the shutdown.

WALSH: Police In North Carolina Arrest Peaceful Protestors, Declare Protesting A ‘Non-Essential Activity’

By ACRU Staff|2023-03-06T12:10:40-05:00April 15th, 2020|

A group of peaceful protesters gathered in Raleigh, North Carolina on Tuesday to call for the re-opening of the state. They stood outside and observed social distancing guidelines. More importantly, they observed the guidelines of the First Amendment, which, plain as day, protects “the right of the people peaceably to assemble and to petition the […]

ACRU Action Fund designates Michigan Governor Whitmer as Tyrant of the Week

By ACRU Staff|2023-03-06T12:10:40-05:00April 15th, 2020|

According to the American Constitutional Rights Union Action Fund, the latest COVID-19 Executive Order issued by Michigan Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer seems less about public safety and more about promoting a liberal agenda that raises her name recognition on the national political stage. ACRU Action reviewed Whitmer’s Executive Order 2020-42 and found it an ideological checklist that promotes aspects of the Green New Deal, obstructs commerce at “big box” stores while protecting big labor, blocks fishing and hunting, and restricts purchase and use of firearms. By banning family visitation with her edict issued on Good Friday, the Governor took a swipe at family values and religious liberty.
