We Missed an Important Birthday: Our Own!

*|MC_PREVIEW_TEXT|*

With the constant crises last week, we managed to forget a very important birthday: our own!   It’s hard to believe, but March 18th marked the 1-year anniversary of S.T.O.P.’s launch, and what a year it’s been. Even before we started making international headlines in response to COVID-19, we were drafting new laws, bringing new lawsuits, and writing the more-than-occasional op-ed.   As we adjust to fighting for privacy in the age of pandemics and self-isolation, we want to take a step back and look at everything we’ve accomplished with the help of our amazing partners and supporters. Please take the time to read more about our incredible first year.   We know that there is a lot more work ahead of us in 2020, and S.T.O.P. will need to grow even more the meet the challenges we face. But we’re beyond ecstatic that we were able to do so much for so many so soon. Read our 2019 report here.   With thanks, Team S.T.O.P. Our First Year Our Team William Owen Previous Previous S.T.O.P.
