Fighting for public policy solutions enabling regular Americans to Live Free.
While many other organizations, such as the ACLU, are intent on shifting court decisions and public opinion against American values, we work every day to safeguard the liberties enshrined in our Constitution and Bill of Rights.
The ACRU Action Fund stands against harmful, anti-constitutional ideologies that have taken hold in our nation’s courts, culture, and bureaucracies. We defend and promote free speech, religious liberty, the Second Amendment, American values, and our national sovereignty.
We hope you will join us in the fight to protect America, the best and last hope for freedom. Your donations will make a difference.
Live Free Local
Are you frustrated with the slow pace of movement in Washington. You write, you call, and you email, but things never seem to change. Part of the reason for that is that Washington politics are far removed from you — the real base of power.
The phrase, “All politics is local,” carries a lot more weight than one might think. In the Founders’ view of our Constitutional Republic, the ultimate power rests at the most local level possible — the individual citizen. Our Constitution is carefully designed to enumerate powers we voluntarily cede to the government in a descending fashion, starting with the individual and ending with the federal government. That’s right. The real power in our country rests with the individual and then the local and state representatives they elect.
This is why the American Constitutional Rights Union started the Live Free Local initiative. Our aim is to embrace local politics and arm you with the tools to make a difference in your community and state.

ACRU Action Commentary
The Three Branches of Government
A federal judge just blocked Texas from enforcing key parts of its own DEI law in three school districts. When activist courts override the will of the people, it's time to channel our inner Brigadier General McAuliffe (Battle of the Bulge) and say "Nuts!"
The Poison of Marxist Leftism
As Texas heads deeper into early voting for the 2026 midterm primary, the question lingers: can Democrats win statewide in the Lone Star State? Despite recent special election wins and shifting poll narratives, the answer remains a firm no. Urban strongholds are not enough to secure statewide success, and key issues like border security, voter ID, energy policy, and parental rights continue to define the political divide. The real challenge for constitutional conservatives is simple: clearly articulate the consequences of leftist policies and make the case to voters across Texas.
When the Government Decides What’s Funny
Politicians don't get to decide what speech might make them look bad. That's not how the First Amendment works. Political satire has been protected since before the ink dried on the Bill of Rights, and it'll be protected long after today's thin-skinned legislators are retired to their private islands, made affordable with proceeds from “lucky investments” of their government salaries.
The Incompatibility of Sharia Law with the U.S. Constitution
Texas is voting to ban Sharia law — and for good reason. When apostasy, simply leaving Islam, is a capital crime in over a dozen countries, there is no compatibility with our First Amendment. Just ask Nissar Hussain, a British Pakistani man condemned to death by a Sharia court for converting to Christianity. His warning to America is one we cannot afford to ignore.
