Anthony Romero

Anthony Romero is the executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), a prominent organization dedicated to defending civil rights and liberties in the United States. Under his leadership, the ACLU has engaged in high-profile legal battles addressing issues such as free speech, immigration rights, and government surveillance. Romero has been a vocal critic of governmental overreach, particularly during the Trump administration, and has advocated for the protection of individual freedoms and justice. He was in the news recently for his comments on the Supreme Court's decision to reject President Trump's bid to freeze $2 billion in foreign aid, describing the move as an abuse of executive power.
