In response to COVID-19, numerous public health and national security measures are being proposed and implemented across the nation. Historically, states of emergency, mandatory quarantines, and curfews have often been used to expand state control over political and civil freedom. Emergency powers often criminalize movement, freedom of expression, protest, and marginalized communities. Nevertheless, it is important that we know what rights exist to protect ourselves and resist increased policing.
We believe that we can build safer communities and respond to COVID-19 without expanding the police or medical surveillance.
