Know Your Constitutional Rights

Since June 6, 2025, Los Angeles has been under siege. ICE has kidnapped thousands of our neighbors from sidewalks, community centers, homes, and workplaces, spreading terror through our communities, with thousands more missing work, medical appointments, and graduation celebrations in order to shelter at home. To fight back, we need to build community power, and that power starts with knowing our rights. Volunteer to canvass or support a canvasser in the field, and learn and share the resources below. No matter your immigration status, you are protected by the U.S. Constitution. Knowing your rights can keep you and your family safe.
