Law
students
have
stood
brave
in
the
fight
to
minimize
ICE’s
trampling
on
the
Constitution.
And
it’s
a
hell
of
a
fight
—
concentrating
judicial
and
legislative
authority
in
the
hands
of
the
executive
branch
is
ripe
ground
for
tyranny.
But
they
fight
on,
by
equipping
their
their
communities
with
anti-ICE
hotlines
or
trying
to
throw
a
wooden
shoe
in
the
hiring
process.
Penn
Law
has
joined
in
on
the
effort
with
free
trainings
to
inform
a
city
being
openly
targeted
by
the
Trump
administration.
The
DP
has
coverage:
University
of
Pennsylvania
Carey
Law
School
student
groups
hosted
a
training
about
rights
in
the
face
of
immigration
enforcement
on
Tuesday.
The
Feb.
17
Immigration
Know
Your
Rights
Training
aimed
to
give
attendees
a
plan
of
action
should
they
encounter
United
States
Immigration
and
Customs
Enforcement
officers
in
Philadelphia.
…
After
the
event,
organizers
distributed
Immigration
Know
Your
Rights
cards
which
outlined
the
constitutional
rights
of
citizens
and
noncitizens,
and
contained
information
about
what
to
do
in
the
case
of
an
interaction
with
an
ICE
agent.
As
important
as
it
is
to
have
protocol
in
place
for
how
things
should
go
in
an
ICE
encounter,
the
unfortunate
reality
is
that
a
shamefully
sizeable
amount
of
the
executive
either
don’t
know
enough
about
the
Constitution
for
it
to
change
how
they
do
their
jobs,
or
are
openly
ignoring
it
so
they
can
say
and
do
things
that
must
seem
really
cool
to
a
6-year-old
who
still
believes
wrestling
is
real:
Know
your
rights,
but
also
know
they
aren’t
worth
as
much
when
the
executive
is
openly
defying
court
orders,
illegally
jailing
by
the
thousands,
and
killing
nurses
for
protecting
women.
Be
careful
out
there.
Rights
training
is
a
good
start,
but
the
real
end
is
abolishing
ICE.
