And more!

And remember – you have rights:
• You have the right to remain silent.
• You do not have to open the door unless ICE presents a warrant signed by a judge.
• You have the right to speak with an attorney before signing anything.
• If you are stopped, you can ask: “Am I free to go?”

If you believe you are witnessing ICE activity, you can call the MONARCA rapid response hotline at 612-441-2881 to report as many details as possible, including what’s happening, how many individuals are involved, what time the incident started, and vehicle ID info.

I want to assure you that Hennepin County is diametrically opposed to the xenophobic, racist, and hateful rhetoric and actions coming from the White House. Somali residents are an important part of our community, and we stand together as neighbors.

In addition to Immigration Legal Defense, Hennepin County provides service to immigrant residents through Adult Representation Services, and Public Health.
