K N O W YO U R R I GH T S if you are stopped by police • You have the right to remain silent. If you wish to remain silent, tell the officer. (Some states may require you to identify yourself to the police if you’re suspected of a crime.) • Stay calm. Don’t run. Don’t argue, resist, or obstruct the police. Keep your hands where police can see them. • Ask if you’re free to leave. If yes, calmly and silently walk away. • You do not have to consent to a search of yourself or your belongings.
if you are stopped in your car • Stop the car in a safe place as quickly as possible. Turn off the car, turn on the internal light, open the window partway, and place your hands on the wheel. • Upon request, show police your driver’s license, registration, and proof of insurance. • If an officer or immigration agent asks to search your car, you can refuse. But if police believe your car contains evidence of a crime, they can search it without your consent. • Both drivers and passengers have the right to remain silent. If you’re a passenger, you can also ask if you’re free to leave. If yes, silently leave.
if you are asked about your immigration status • You have the right to remain silent. You do not have to answer questions about where you were born, whether you’re a U.S. citizen, or how you entered the country. (Separate rules apply at international borders and airports, and for individuals on certain nonimmigrant visas, including tourists and business travelers.) • If you’re not a U.S. citizen and have valid immigration papers, you should show them if an immigration agent requests it. • Do not lie about your citizenship status or provide fake documents.
if the police or immigration agents come to your home • You don’t have to let them in unless they have a warrant signed by a judge. • Ask them to show you the warrant. Officers can only search the areas and for the items listed on the warrant. An arrest warrant allows police to enter the home of the person listed on the warrant if they believe the person is inside. A warrant of removal/ deportation (ICE warrant) does not allow officers to enter a home without consent. • Even if officers have a warrant, you may remain silent. If you choose to speak, step outside and close the door.
