People were also recommended to register such searches and how to differentiate between different starting orders that ICE agents can probably carry.
“The fact that someone ends on the ice radar and the ice believes that he can deport someone, does not mean that, according to the law, the person can be deported or does not have the option of fighting their case to remain in the United States. ” The declared mission of the group is to combat the orientation of immigrants for mass imprisonment and deportation.
“And even if during a meeting with ICE, what they are doing does not feel legal, legal or does not feel fair, it is important to know that everyone has rights during their meetings with ICE,” Blaser said. “Everyone has rights regardless of their immigration state in the United States.”
The live transmission of 54 minutes was aimed at migrants living in the 14th District of Ocasio-Cortez, which covers part of Queens and the Bronx.
Ocasio-Cortez did not participate in the Web Seminar, but went up to Instagram, through posters in English and Spanish, and asked their followers to share the posters widely and study it.
“Our strategic advantage at this time is our strength in numbers,” Occasio-Cortez wrote. “It’s time to use it. In almost all the senses, we overcome those who want to abuse their power and keep people with fear. The truth is that they cannot chase everyone. That is why they use and create fear actively : We come to give ourselves in advance and retire from public life without lifting a finger. “
He also called his followers to print the posters and “record them in their workplace or keep them at their door.”
“Then, if ICE reaches its work or home, whether citizen or non -citizen, you can defend your community and our constitution exercising your right,” he wrote.

During the web seminar, the hosts told the spectators that the fourth amendment, which provides protection against irrazonable searches and seizures by the government, applies to all, including migrants.
“So there is a general rule here, which is in private spaces, ice will need an order of order signed by a judge or its consent to enter that space or do a search. When we talk about public spaces. Ice will need reasonable suspicion To make an arrest, “said another speaker, who identified himself as Laura.
He explained the difference between a court order and an administrative order, saying that only a court order grants ice authority to initiate a search.
However, she said that ICE rarely carries a court order, which means that ICE agents need consent to enter a house.
“But they often use tariffs or intimidation to try to deceive people to do or say things that can interpret as consent to enter,” he said.
“And that is really the purpose of the tariffs. Since they do not have a court order, they need to obtain their consent to enter, or want Right to enter or want to intimidate or scare him so that he does not want to affirm his rights. “
The hosts also recommend that people document interactions with ICE through video recording or taking notes, saying that this information could be useful for the rights groups of local immigrants, as well as friends or family.
They also shared their own trends about how ICE has been doing searches in recent weeks.

“In particular in recent weeks, ice agents will go to homes early in the morning to make arrests,” Blaser said. “They will stop people on the street or in public places, which could include a public area of a workplace. Therefore, that could be the front of a restaurant or somewhere that anyone in the public can enter” .
He also said that unmarked ice vehicles also stop cars, since people lead to work or home, while people who may be under a supervision order have been arrested while registering on the rocks.
“It could be from two or three agents to a group of eight agents,” Blaser said. “They are often very aggressive and the encounters can happen very fast.”
