February 21, 2025Know your Rights

Brothers and Sisters, I hope this finds you well.
Understanding immigration policies is crucial for protecting yourself, your family, and your community. Whether you are a citizen, a permanent resident, or undocumented, you have rights that cannot be ignored. Everyone deserves fair treatment, due process, and access to resources, regardless of immigration status.
With policies constantly changing, it is important to stay informed and prepared. Know your rights during encounters with immigration authorities—such as the right to remain silent, the right to refuse unlawful searches, and the right to legal representation.

Supporting fair immigration policies means advocating for dignity, respect, and opportunity for all. By staying informed, seeking legal guidance, and standing together, we can push for policies that reflect justice and equality for immigrants across the country.
