I can't find anything about actions the ACM has taken on this issue. According to their website [1], the USACM is responsible for US policy matters.
The USACM website [2] does not mention anything about the ongoing DOJ vs. Apple case, or upcoming encryption laws being drafted by Burr-Feinstein.
Their "Tech Policy Blog" is currently down ("Access forbidden!") [3]
Most of the discussion I see about policy has to do about diversifying computer science and getting more women involved. This is laudable, but given recent news you'd think they would have some comment on their website about the DOJ, Apple, or encryption in general.
The EFF, on the other hand, has kept us well informed about proposed laws and the Apple FBI case.
