working on court cases that involve the rights of underrepresented people.

Explanation:

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) works to win court cases that involve the rights of people who are underrepresented. ACLU lawyers challenge the validity of government policies that do not uphold citizens' rights given in the Constitution. The organization also works to have new civil liberties policies passed.

Eve Ford · Answer 2

D) is the correct answer.

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) influences government policies by working on court cases that involve the rights of underrepresented people.

This Nonprofit and Non Governmental Organization is responsible for filing lawsuits before the judiciary and carrying out trials in defense of persons or minority groups whose individual liberties have been subjugated, regardless of whether the demands they claim are well regarded by society as a whole, but rather whether they comply with the letter of the Constitution of the United States of America.

Through this strategy, they manage to broaden the civil debate on the issues addressed and press the government to change certain policies accordingly.
