DEFEND OUR PEOPLE
Standing together against deportation, fascism, and unjust raids. Abolish ICE and protect our neighbors.
United Against Oppression
Rights Over Raids is a grassroots collective dedicated to pushing back against ICE agents, deportation forces, and the rising tide of fascism. We believe that no human being is illegal and that our communities are stronger when we stand together to protect each other.
Abolish ICE
ICE was created in 2003 and expanded a detention-and-deportation system that tears families apart. Our communities demand safety built on dignity, not cages and raids.
Policy Demands
- End deportations: stop workplace raids, home raids, and collaboration with local police.
- Close detention centers: release people held in ICE custody and end detention contracts.
- Invest in care: fund housing, legal aid, healthcare, and community-based support.
Why It Matters
- Abolition is safety: communities are safer when families stay together.
- Rights for all: no one should face detention for seeking a future.
- Community power: grassroots networks protect neighbors when ICE targets them.
If ICE Comes to Your Door
Don't Open the Door
ICE agents need a judicial warrant signed by a judge to enter your home. Ask them to slide it under the door. Administrative warrants are not enough.
Remain Silent
You have the right to remain silent. Say loudly: "I am exercising my right to remain silent." Do not answer questions about where you were born.
Don't Sign Anything
Do not sign any documents without speaking to a lawyer first. You might be signing away your rights or agreeing to your own deportation.
Ask For A Lawyer
You have the right to speak to an attorney. If you are detained, ask to make a phone call to a lawyer or family member immediately.
If ICE Stops You in Public
- Ask if you can leave: say, “Am I free to go?” If yes, walk away calmly.
- Do not consent: you can refuse a search of your body, phone, or belongings.
- Record safely: take notes or video from a safe distance if possible.
If ICE Detains You
- Say you want a lawyer: do not sign documents without legal advice.
- Do not lie: stay silent instead of guessing or giving false information.
- Call your support: ask for a phone call to family, a lawyer, or a trusted hotline.
