Actions for Helpers & Allies

• Distribute Red Cards and Green Cards.  Details here.

• If your immigrant cleaner or landscaper has not shown up, or an immigrant neighbor has not been seen in while, you can safely assume that they are afraid to go out.  You don't need to ask.  Contact them and ask if you can help in any way, perhaps picking up groceries or medications. Please don't call authorities for a welfare check!  This could lead to more trouble for the families.

• Call your US House Representative and your US Senators.  The "Five Calls" app is excellent and knows the phone numbers and suggests scripts.  If you want to roll your own,, Arizona legislator phone numbers are here and here are some suggested prompts.

• Go to your local houses of worship (any faith, not just where you might attend).  Ask what services they are offering immigrants.  Do they have meals?  Shelter?  Encourage them to do more if possible.  Generally this information is not publically available, go in person to ask.

• If you see an ICE raid in process, film it if you can, but stay out of the way.  If the raid is in a commercial area, go to nearby businesses and warn them to lock their doors.  If the raid is in a residential area, knock on doors and warn people.  ICE cannot enter businesses or residences without a warrant, so it's key that no one answers the locked door.

• Know what to do if ICE comes to your workplace.
