How to Support Students WRT information on ICE and rights?

[Anonymous]

Does anyone have a handy resource?
My DC goes to school in MN and I want to provide them with materials so that they understand their rights.
I assume the school will have information - but I have not seen anything.
Rumor has it ICE is going door to door with guns drawn and my student lives off campus so there is a greater than 0 chance will encounter a pack of ICE agents over the next few weeks.

Contact your school administration or legal services office if there is a law school there. I believe that rumor is false, and they do not have time to randomly go door to door on a college campus. They are looking for criminals, high-risk/violent individuals, warrants, and gang members, not the average college student in an off-campus apartment. Your child should comply as instructed, just as he would with any law enforcement officer if they happen to stop him and request identification. It's straightforward and basic when encountering ICE or a police officer.

They are disappearing people with no criminal record. They are detaining US citizens.

You do not have to speak to ICE or answer their questions. You can assert your right to remain silent and request a lawyer. You can decline their request to search you or your vehicle. ICE is not allowed into private spaces without a judicial warrant.

OP, here are resources from the Minnesota ACLU:

What part of their recent behavior makes you think that?

Right? Did the incident resulting in Renee Good’s death even have anything to do with actual, meaningful immigration enforcement? The government just announced a surge in ICE presence to quell protests. They are being (mis)used to militarize and occupy American communities.

They spent a considerable amount of effort going after a 130 pound korean girl that broke no laws but made a lot of noise at protests until a judge told them to specifically lay off of her.

They are looking to meet a quota, create a chilling effect and push home the one issue that up until recently had been a bit if a bright spot for this administration.

Are you writing from 2024? They don't have judicial warrants. They boast that they don't need them.

What's straightforward and basic is that you have the right to say: I'm not going to identify myself.

I think if you are within a certain distance from the border you don't have that option - this is an exception the courts made for ICE. The cities near the oceans and borders are easy targets.

Sorry if I posted in the wrong forum - my College aged student is returning to college in MN and living off campus.

My assumption was that other parents with college ages students in other cities have encounter something like this and had a resource to share.

How is this any different than crowdsourcing what boots to get for a child going to college in the NE?

Yes, you have that right. And then they are authorized to detain you until they can verify your citizenship.

Your adult child is in college and cannot figure this out for themselves? Why do you need to provide them with materials?

Or, did you just want to express your anxiety here, so you invented a problem so you'd have a reason to post?

Ooo pull the "Land the helicopter" trope

Sure. Use that when college kids have disagreements about whose turn it is to clean the bathroom

Not when they might encounter a paramilitary force on campus

They ... literally raided a high school last week, tackling kids to the ground. You might have missed this but they also shot and killed a US citizen who was trying to accommodate a request that she leave. She had three children with a man who served in the Air Force for 14 years; those children are now orphans. Look it up. It happened last week. What was her criminal record? Her gang affiliation? How was she high-risk or violent?

No one needs to comply with ICE instructions. They have no jurisdiction over American citizens

Every single ICE agent will be tried in 2029. Many of them will be hanged for crimes against humanity.
