    I'm a longtime ACLU supporter but getting involved in partisan healthcare policy debates seems to dilute the core purpose of the org.pic.twitter.com/wxXBA8hkP9

        Coalitions to defend civil liberties need to be as trans-partisan as possible: healthcare policy better left to other advocacy groups. IMO.

        They declare it (at least a specific way of providing it) as a civil right - but where do we draw the line for that?

        .@mtracey @ACLU chapters also do school funding adequacy litigation, another diversion that hinders trans-partisan coalition-building.

        I can see it both ways.. if it IS a civil right, then they can argue that..but there is no statute or amendment that says it is...

        As a civil/human right, the @ACLU should be asking for #SinglePayer. Why stop at only protecting those who already have coverage?

        So would it be better to think of the ACLU as a progressive political organization rather than generic civil liberties?

        Clearly their business model now depends on continuing to be visibly part of the #resistance.

        Which does goes beyond *raw* civil liberties activity alone.

        To everyone defending ACLU, ask yourselves why it has been so relatively silent regarding US wars, like dems.
