[LWVNM Action] Immigration :What To Carry Amid ICE Raids

Tue Sep 23 12:39:14 MDT 2025

This guidance is not just for California. It’s a grave threat to our
democracy when the Supreme Court majority decides that ICE sweeps can
use racial profiling in arrests and detention.

Dear Carolina,

Recently, the U.S. Supreme court ruled in the case of *Noem v. Vasquez
Perdomo* that roving ICE patrols can continue to conduct immigration raids
using racial profiling.

All communities of color will be influenced by this decision, regardless of
whether they are U.S. citizens or undocumented.

Today, we are reaching out to offer suggestions to you and your loved ones
on what to carry to protect ourselves in these times of indiscriminate ICE
raids.

Full guidance and recommendations are posted at AJSOCAL.org/immigration

 as part of our Know Your Rights resources. As each person’s immigration
case is complex and nuanced, please know this is general guidance and not
legal advice. The best course of protection and defense is prevention.

BELOW ARE JUST SOME OF THE SUGGESTIONS.

*U.S Citizens *

   - The law does not require U.S. Citizens to carry proof of their
   citizenship, however, some are choosing to carry on their persons proof of
   citizenship, which can include: U.S. Passport Book or Card, Copy of U.S.
   Passport Identification page, Copy of U.S. Naturalization Certificate, Copy
   of U.S. Birth Certificate.
   - We advise you NOT to take pictures of your proof of citizenship on
   your mobile device and show them to an ICE agent, as you may be giving them
   consent to search your phone.

*U.S. Legal Permanent Residents   *

   - The law requires all legal permanent residents over the age of 18 to
   carry their green cards on them at all times.
   - If your green card has expired and you’ve filed an I-90, keep a copy
   of your I-797 receipt notice with your expired card.

*Undocumented  *

   - Do not carry a foreign passport, or any proof of foreign nationality
   on your person.
   - Carry a Red Card. This card, which along with remaining silent, can be
   presented to protect your constitutional rights.
   - Download Red Cards in your language at ajsocal.org/immigration

*DACA Recipients *

   - Keep an unexpired Employment Authorization Document (I-766 Work
   Permit) with you.
   - Keep with you a copy of your I-797 DACA (I-821D) Approval Notice.
   Ensure the approval date ranges are still current.
   - If previously lawfully admitted, keep a printout of your I-94, which
   can be relevant for a possible future bond hearing.

*Non-Immigrants *

   - Many immigrants are lawfully present in America via limited term,
   Non-Immigrant Status. Common types of Non-Immigrant status are: Students
   (F-1), Business Visitors & Tourists (B-1, B-2), Victims of Crime (U),
   Treaty Traders & Investors (E-1, E-2), Specialty Occupation (H-1B), and
   Transfer Employees (L-1A, L-1B).
   - Please keep on you a printout of your I-94, which can prove your legal
   status in the U.S. It can be found and printed after entering information
   at:                     https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/search/recent-search

*Pending Green Card Cases (Asylum, VAWA, Adjustment of Status) *

   - Make a copy of relevant I-797 Receipt notices proving pending cases
   and keep with you.
   - Immigration history can be complex. You may have a relevant admission
   proving immigration history on your I-94. It can be printed after entering
   information at: https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/search/recent-search
