Being undocumented, what should I do if I am detained by ICE ?

Every human being in the United States has rights that he can exercise. Understand that you have rights that no authority can deny you some of these are: You can remain silent, you can demand that a lawyer represent you, you cannot be physically or verbally abused, you can make a phone call. They cannot force you to sign any document.

If they arrive at your home, you can ask them to pass the judge’s order under the door and if the wanted person is really not present, you can inform the officers that the person does not live there or is not there. Their obligations are: Do not oppose physical resistance or try to deceive agents. Remember that if you decide not to keep silent, all information you provide may be used against you.
