Who We Are

The Trump administration is trying to gut a crucial civil rights protection — and we have to stop them.

This campaign is led by the National Fair Housing Alliance, The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, NAACP Legal Defense & Educational Fund, Inc., Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, Poverty and Race Research Action Council, American Civil Liberties Union, and Center for Responsible Lending. As national civil rights organizations, we are united by our belief in equality and fairness, our desire to educate the public on important civil rights protections, and our commitment to #DefendCivilRights from those looking to weaken them. We know that where people live impacts every aspect of their lives — access to good jobs, quality schools, a clean and healthy environment, accessible transportation, stable credit, and much more. Everyone should have a place to call home that connects them to the opportunities they need to thrive.
