We are sad and angry about the current situation with ICE and we want you to be safe, know your rights, and how to help your community.

If ICE stops you in public, you have the right to ask the agency of the officer (ICE, Customs and Border Patrol, or state police). You have the right to remain silent, refuse a search, and refuse to show citizenship documentation. It is not illegal to observe and record stops performed by ICE agents.

If they come to your home, they must show a warrant signed by a judge to enter. ICE typically only has administrative warrants. Click HERE to see the differencec.

We understand that the videos of ICE behaviors are extremely disturbing. If you want to understand what documents are needed to prove your citizenship and show them in an attempt to de-escalate an encounter with them, please click HERE.

For DFW Darlings (our headquarters!), if you are looking for ways to get involved, we recommend you follow: @dallasprotesters, @dfwantiwarcommittee, and @foodnotbombsdtx on Instagram and the “Peaceful Protest DFW” group on Facebook to stay connected with protests, current events, and community action. Getting involved with collective action varies by location. If you are in a different state, start with seeking out left-wing political gatherings like your local Democratic Socialist chapter.
