KNOW YOUR RIGHTS IN CASE OF ICE: CONOCE TUS DERECHOS EN CASO DE ENCUENTRO CON ICE:
DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR. ICE cannot enter your home without a warrant signed by a judge. Tell the agents to show you the warrant by sliding it under the door. NO ABRAS TU PUERTA. ICE no puede entrar a tu casa sin una orden firmada por un juez. Diles a los agentes que te muestren la orden deslizรกndola debajo de la puerta.
ASK THEM TO LEAVE. If ICE doesn't have a warrant, tell them you do not consent for them to enter your home and ask them to leave. At work, ICE cannot enter employee-only areas without permission. 2 PรDALES QUE SE VAYAN. Si ICE no tiene una orden judicial, diles que no das tu consentimiento para que entren a tu casa y pรญdeles que se vayan. En el trabajo, ICE no puede ingresar a รกreas exclusivas para empleados sin permiso.
REMAIN SILENT. You have the right to remain silent. If the agents ask you questions, tell them, "I wish to remain silent." PERMANECE EN SILENCIO. Tienes derecho a permanecer en silencio. Si los agentes te hacen preguntas, diles: "Deseo permanecer en silencio".
It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.
EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

DON'T DO IT.
If they're going to punish you? MAKE THEM PUT IT IN WRITING. ALL OF IT.
Document, document, document.
Act confused. Be confused! Go slow. Require clarity. Lots. Document
Do not comply in advance. Do not comply swiftly, do not comply easily. Do not comply without delay, without mistakes, without unfortunate errors. Do not comply because you have to speak to your boss. Your manager. Another team. The legal department. Do not comply because you need to consult documentation and obtain authorization from additional parties. Itโs not your fault if you cannot comply. There are cross-dependencies. Unforeseen complications. Expired credentials. Youโre doing your best to comply, really, but thereโs a software issue and itโs going to take an additional 48 hours (again and again).
Un-comply. What do you mean, the prior version is back? It must have been a scripting error, a problem at the data center, a version control conflict. Itโll get done properly this time. (It wonโt.) You see incompetence and points of failure every day, from airlines and health insurance and labyrinthine phone trees. Weaponize itโsoftly, apologetically, innocently. Armor yourself in procedure and regulations. Defend your coworkers. Itโs not their fault that error happened, itโs because there was insufficient training. A broken plug-in. A risk of a data leak. Fighting back doesnโt have to look like a fight. Comply if you must, but do so poorly. This is resistance. This matters.
A hymn for all workers.
