Dear John, 

Since Election Day, National Immigrant Justice Center (NIJC) staff have received hundreds of calls from community members and legal services clients asking one big question: What can we do to protect ourselves in the face of the next administration’s threats of mass deportation?

As loved ones come together for holiday gatherings next week, we know in many households these questions will continue to be top of mind.

We want you to know that all people in the United States have rights, regardless of our immigration status. Understanding these rights is our first step toward safeguarding ourselves and our loved ones.

To support our communities, NIJC has updated our Know Your Rights resources, now accessible across multiple platforms.

These include:

• Prepare for Trump’s Mass Deportation Threats (English | Spanish)
• If You Encounter ICE (English | Spanish)
• Avoid Immigration Fraud (English | Spanish)
• Resources about guardianships and powers of attorney under Illinois and Indiana law (English | Spanish) ​​​​​​

We've made these resources available across multiple formats. Please share them and help us spread the word!

Thank you for defending due process and access to justice for our communities.

Sincerely,

Cecilia Mendoza
Legal Supervisor & Associate Director of Government Relations
National Immigrant Justice Center
