So many of us are finding our voice and sharing our concern about the US Army Corps of Engineers’ (USACE) Contract 3B, which will bulldoze 2 miles of American Riverfront this summer.

This ruling has significant implications for our democracy. Brennan Center experts are hosting a special digital town hall to break down what this decision means and what comes next. Join us tomorrow at 3 p.m. ET as our experts share their analysis of the ruling and answer your questions. |
