In our last Consent Chronicle, we told you that our sister organization, the Downsize DC Foundation has a unique opportunity to advance this very same case, the Sila Luis v United States case, in the U.S. Supreme Court. We encourage you to check out that message, which is available on our blog.
On top of what you’ve read, above, we explain in that message how…
We’d filed a brief in a previous asset forfeiture case, known as Kaley
We were asked, by Luis’ lawyer, because of that previous brief, to file an amicus brief in this instance, as well
We are uniquely qualified to help in the Luis case in other ways
We’re looking for someone to contribute $1,000 or more. We seeking others to give $500 or $200, or to being a monthly pledge of $25 or more. If that describes you, you’ll receive an official, Supreme Court copy of the amicus brief (once it’s completed; it’s due late this month).
Plus, all donors who make a contribution will be listed, in a Consent Chronicle about the brief (unless they request privacy on the donor form). As a donor, you will receive a pdf copy, direct to your email inbox.
To be recognized, your donation should be made to the “Downsize DC Foundation,” which makes it TAX-DEDUCTIBLE if you itemize. (Contributions made to DownsizeDC.org are welcome, but won’t be counted for this project and are NOT tax-deductible.)
