Other actions you can take:
Share this resource with friends, family, and others in your community.
Save the deportation hotline numbers in your phone contacts, so you have this information on hand if you need it.
Always use humanizing language.
Remind them:
“You can remain silent!”
“You don’t have to answer questions!”
“You have the right to call your lawyer!”
You don’t have to sign anything without a lawyer!”
You have a First Amendment right to talk to the person being detained. You can remind them of their rights and provide verbal support as long as you are not interfering with or obstructing the officers.
Call the family and/or emergency contact of the person being detained, if you know who they are. You can be the connection to ensure their support network is alerted as soon as possible.
If possible, provide support for the person being detained, and remind them of their rights.
Here are some common agency acronyms you may see on agents’ vests:
“ICE”: Immigration and Customs Enforcement
“ERO”: Enforcement and Removal Operations
“CBP”: Customs and Border Protection
“DHS”: Department of Homeland Security
Be ready to share specific information:
Where exactly are the agents?
How many immigration or law enforcement agents are there?
What are the agents doing?
How long have the agents been in that location?
What, if anything, do you know about the person being detained?
If officers ask you to step back, do step back, but you can keep recording video. You have a First Amendment right to record law enforcement actions in public spaces.
Alert local advocates of ICE activity.
You can make a difference:
If you witness someone being detained by ICE
If you have a smartphone, record video of the interaction.
Try to record any identifying information, like agency vests, badge numbers, car make and model, or car license plates.

This is a big deal, y'all. Federal health websites are being stripped of content or removed in their entirety. Stick with this thread for a look at what's disappeared so far! 1/x
