The Worst of All Possible Worlds

INTERVIEW: Knowing your rights in the face of ICE

Listen Later

Fighting the tide of rising fascism requires good information. This week, Josh sat down with Isaac Adams, an immigration attorney with nearly a decade of experience defending immigrants in removal proceedings from the United States government, to get a better understanding of the current legal landscape. Among other things, we talked about:

  • What is new under the recently inaugurated Trump administration and what is merely a continuation of long-standing government policy
  • How the recently signed bipartisan Laken Riley Act expands the authority of ICE to detain undocumented immigrants indefinitely
  • How to document what you see effectively and spread useful, accurate information within your community
  • How to know your rights and assert them when confronted by enforcement officers

    • Get equipped and keep your head up. We are going to win.
