From the National Immigration Law Center (http://www.nilc.org):
Information is power. In these turbulent times, one of the most important tools to help you protect yourself and your loved ones is a solid understanding of your basic rights with law enforcement and immigration officers, at the workplace, or in a hospital.
Take a look to learn more, print and share these resources at https://www.nilc.org/get-involved/community-education-resources/know-your-rights/.
While we fight back against the anti-immigrant rhetoric and policies of the current administration, it’s crucial for all of us to know what immigration enforcement officers can and can’t do when interacting with immigrant community members. No matter who is president of the United States, everyone has basic rights that must be respected.
Help us celebrate Immigrant Heritage Month this June by checking out our compilation of know-your-rights resources and sharing them with your friends and loved ones.
Thank you for continuing to stand up for justice and dignity for all.
