What do I get with my membership?
Every member receives Civil Liberties, the national ACLU's newspaper,
which covers civil liberties issues all over the country in a clear and
comprehensive way. In addition, the ACLU publishes a broad variety of
special newsletters, public policy reports, handbooks and brochures. Visit
the national website
for more information.
Is my membership due Tax-Deductible?
No. Because a significant part of the ACLU's work is legislative lobbying
on the local, state and national level, your ACLU dues are not tax-deductible.
However the ACLU Foundation of Wisconsin is a 501(c)3 tax-deductible entity
of the ACLU of Wisconsin that underwrites the legal work of the affiliate.
Contributions to the ACLU of Wisconsin Foundation are tax-deductible and
support litigation, public education and special projects. For more information
about tax-deductible gifts to the Foundation, contact our state
office.
