A while back I was searching for information on public funding of the ACLU. I didn’t find much information into any direct funding except for taxpayer money that goes to them for winning cases.

While going through my mail I found an old letter from the, Frontiers of Freedom.

It is a group founded by a retired U.S. Senator Malcolm Wallop.

He states in his letter,

“ A provision of U. S. Code 1988, Civil Rights Act 42 allow for public funding of attorney’s fees for civil rights cases. When the law passed 30 years ago, it was intended to help victims of actual discrimination. But now the ACLU is abusing this law to secure taxpayer dollars for their attacks on religion, the Boy Scouts, and the Pledge of Allegiance.â€
