Watch the recording of this excellent program on Civil Liberties and the Supreme Court. In January, Ed Yohnka, Director of Communications and Public Policy at the ACLU of Illinois, updated us on how a string of recent decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court impacts basic civil liberties for all.
The ACLU of Illinois has been the principal protector of constitutional rights in the state since its founding in 1926. Ed Yohnka began his job at the ACLU in 1999. He serves as a primary spokesperson for the organization, and appears regularly on television and radio programs in Illinois and throughout the nation. Yohnka also is widely cited in newspapers and publications on legal and legislative matters related to the ACLU of Illinois’ priorities.
