Defending Civil Liberties: Staying Informed

ACATT.org is undergoing a robust renovation—and we're doing more than just dusting off the homepage. We're rebuilding our digital fortress from the ground up to serve citizens, truth seekers, and freedom fighters who demand facts, transparency, and accountability in an age of increasing authoritarianism.
During this transition period, the site may be quiet, but make no mistake: This is the calm before a much-needed storm of investigative firepower. When ACATT.org reopens, it won’t just be refreshed but reborn. Expect a sharper, faster, more immersive platform designed to spotlight the most critical threats to our civil liberties and shine an unrelenting light on the forces that attempt to hide in the shadows of bureaucracy and misinformation.
Here’s what you can look forward to when we relaunch:
1. A Bold New Design. Clean, responsive, and mobile-friendly, the updated ACATT.org will put the content front and center—no distractions, no fluff. Expect a layout that makes navigating deep investigative reports, citizen actions, and quick news updates seamless across all devices.
2. Hard-Hitting Investigations. Our reporting will dig deeper than ever. We’re enhancing our research tools and methodologies to unearth hidden truths and expose systemic abuses. From quiet policy changes to loud power grabs, nothing escapes scrutiny.
3. Community-Powered Journalism. The fight against totalitarianism isn’t a solo mission. Our new features will include citizen-reporting tools, secure tip submissions, and expanded opportunities for community contributions. You don’t just read the news here—you help make it.
4. Actionable Advocacy. ACATT has always been more than a news site—it’s a launchpad for civic engagement. The new site will include dynamic tools to help users write to their representatives, start petitions, attend local meetings, and organize protests. Every article will not just inform—it will empower.
5. Audio & Visual Storytelling. Get ready for hard truths with high impact. From documentary-style video features to podcasts with investigative depth, we’re adding multimedia that brings stories to life and resonates far beyond the written word.
6. Archives & Research Library. Our content library will be thoroughly reorganized, with expanded filters and tagging to help you find exactly what you need, whether exploring FOIA documents or revisiting past exposés.
7. Editorial Transparency. You deserve to know how and why we publish what we do. The revamped site will include source logs, fact-check layers, and editorial notes, giving readers insight into how every story is built—and where the facts come from.
8. Independent and Uncompromising. As always, ACATT remains 100% independent. There are no sponsors or corporate strings, just reader-supported, truth-first reporting that refuses to compromise.
We’re rebuilding ACATT.org with you in mind: the reader who doesn’t flinch from hard truths, the citizen who asks hard questions, and the activist who believes that democracy isn’t just an ideal—it’s a fight.
Thank you for being so patient during this transformation. We can't wait to show you what comes next.
Stay vigilant. Stay loud. ACATT will return more potent than ever.
