By signing a document given to you by an INS agent, you may be giving up certain rights, or agreeing to return to your country. For the INS to enter a workplace, the immigration agent must have a valid search or arrest warrant, or have the employer's permission to enter. If INS agents enter by force and arrest you, you should remain silent and demand the right to speak to an attorney. All workers, regardless of their legal status, must receive at least the minimum wage for full-time work. Employers must provide safety equipment and remove hazardous materials from the workplace.
All children deserve an education.

Public schools should not ask for your or your children's immigration status, and generally do not ask. Your Right to Medical Treatment Publicly funded hospitals are required to provide emergency medical services regardless of the patient's immigration status. Eligibility for health benefits is complicated, and you should seek advice from a community agency or attorney. Even if you are not eligible for certain medical benefits, you may be able to apply for benefits on behalf of your children, if they were born in the United States.
