KNOW YOUR RIGHTS
​You have rights, and you can protect yourself and others by exercising those rights.

​Everyone, including undocumented immigrants, living in the U.S. has certain basic rights under the Constitution.
​It is important to know and exercise your rights should you ever encounter Immigration Customs Enforcement (I.C.E.)
​
1. Right to Remain Silent
  • You do not have to answer questions about your immigration status, where you were born, or how you entered the country.
  • You can say: “I choose to remain silent.”
2. Protection from Unlawful Entry
  • ICE agents cannot enter your home without a judicial warrant—a legal document signed by a judge.
  • An administrative warrant from ICE or DHS is not enough to enter your home.
3. Right to Legal Counsel
  • If you are detained, you have the right to ask for a lawyer.
  • You do not have to sign anything without speaking to a lawyer.
4. Freedom from Discrimination
  • You have the right not to be targeted because of your race, nationality, or religion.
  • If you experience discrimination, you can report it to advocacy groups.
