2025 Annual Meeting

2025 has been quite a year. Since President Trump's inauguration, the ACLU has filed more than 150 lawsuits against the Trump administration, and in Virginia, we've been fighting hard – in the court, in the legislature, and on the streets – to protect Virginians' civil rights and civil liberties. Join ACLU-VA members for our annual meeting to see how YOU helped us hold the line this year in our collective fight for our rights – and what's ahead for 2026.
