The NLG DNC-People's Law Project could not defend protesters' rights without your financial support.

Officials expect 800 to 2000 arrests to occur at the 2008 Democratic National Convention in Denver. Denver's City Attorney and the Police Department have promised that they do not "cite and release" protesters. Legal observing and representation are key to ensure that the constitutional rights of demonstrators are guaranteed -- from the streets to the jails and to the courtroom.

The People's Law Project of the Colorado National Lawyers Guild is organizing attorneys, law students, and legal workers to help protect the right to peaceful expression and uphold the constitution. We need your help to obtain office space during the DNC, train lawyers and legal observers, coordinate legal defense, and assemble evidence for use in potential civil rights litigation.

Your donation will enable us to train legal observers, distribute Know Your Rights information, coordinate the legal defense of demonstrators who may find themselves arrested for free speech activity at DNC, and fund civil litigation necessary to rectify violations of constitutional rights.
