In Interview on cnnSeema Czar Tom Homan said that immigrants were very informed in the US. “The sanctuary is making it very difficult to arrest civil criminals,” He saidApparently angry that immigrants would know about the basic rights they are outstanding by the government for which they work. For example, Chicago, very well educated. They have been educated how to define snow, how to hide from snow. ,
The snow raids that the Trump administration has ordered across the country rely on fear, and there is no shortage in it. Farm are not showing workers FruitAnd street vendors are not showing Run their businessThey are keeping their children home from school. “People of the neighborhood are talking about it. Agents are coming around, and people are afraid of going to work, “A restaurant in Queens Told Grubstreet,
As American immigration councilAll conditions immigrants make 22 percent of the food service industry, and ICE agents are making everyone wide in their raids, Even American citizensJesse Hain, senior advocate of Labor and Employment Policy, says, “ICE with the new administration has been largely engraved, and they are not respecting the rights of the people.” National immigration law center“It just creates too much chaos, and should be held accountable.” And how to play an ice raid in a business, it is different from it that can look on the road or in an individual house, which is why it is important for all restaurants and food industry workers to know that if ice But what to do if you are shown. We talked to Hans, and consulted other experts, how the restaurant workers and owners can work together to keep everyone safe.
Learn the difference between public and private places
There is a difference of differences about what ice can do in public versus private places, and a lot your rights literature knows, like These guides are published by the immigrant defense centerNote that if ice stops you on the road, what to do, where the question of entering a place without consent does not apply. “A lot of this is seen as a bedock, constitutional fourth modification and fifth modification security that are not unique to immigration enforcement,” says Han. Fourth amendment protects The difference between improper discoveries and seizures, and can be discovered publicly and what can be discovered in private without any warrant.
For restaurants, spaces such as bar and dining room count as public places, “because anyone can enter the general public,” Han says. This means that ice can question both workers and customers in those areas (for which) Immigrant Defense Project suggests Asked if you are free to go, or calling your right to remain silent). But the way the general public cannot enter the kitchen or manager’s office, neither snow can give them clear permission without judicial warrants. “You should consider placing a signage indicating some areas as ‘private’ to separate from public areas before any ice raid,” Hospitality practice group Fox Rothschild Law firm.
Make sure the staff knows who is authorized to get into the snow
Most of the legal authorities have the ability to enter private places when agreed by the owner of the business. “We recommend that the owners communicate with all their employees, and that the employee is clear that only the employer has the ability to give that permission to enter private sectors” Han says. “If asked, they should say, essentially, ‘I do not have the right to provide you.”
Learn the difference between a judicial warrant and administrative warrant
A government official makes sense to see a government official with a gun, who says “warrant” and let him do whatever he wants to do out of fear. But according to Hayn, it is important that the restaurant workers and owners know the difference between a judicial warrant and administrative warrant because a judicial warrant is the only type of warrant to enter a private place without the consent of the owner to the federal officials. Allows.
“A judicial warrant is going to be signed by a judge, and at the top it is going to name the court, on which the judge sits.” A judicial warrant will also lie a time limit for a discovery, allowing specific areas or items to be discovered, and officers to enter listed areas. Ask for a copy of the warrant and keep an eye on the same where it authorizes ice to go.
Hain says that many officers will try to enter without any warrant, or administrative warrant, which does not give them legal rights to enter a private sector without the owner’s consent. “An administrative warrant will usually say the homeland security department at the top, or immigration and customs enforcement,” instead of a court and judge’s name. “It is important to stop and take a beat and say, ‘I need to see the document and see and understand the document, is this a judicial warrant or not?”
Know what you are doing
Hayn says that there are two main types of raids – a one in which the employer, usually for a large operation, is being investigated for illegal work and other crimes, and ““ What we have seen in the last few weeks, He is getting these small -scale raids’ some people are getting again, and it does not belong to an investigation into the employer. ,
Most experts recommend anyone to subjugate to these raids, whether it is happening, whether on your phone or in written notes, but not to intervene. “Do not lie to the officers or do not give wrong information or try to destroy or hide any documents or items. Fox Rothschild says, “Do not help employees with the authorities to hide or leave the premises or encourage them to do so. The owner can inform the employees whether they have the option to speak with ice, but Do not try to convince the employees to convince it, but in addition, the owners do not need to provide information about the immigration status of any employee, or even specific persons have to be identified for ice . “You do not want to interrupt them,” but you can still make a decline in giving a search, and then you can see what they can Keep an eye on what they are doing and what they are saying and what they are doing. ”
It is probably a good idea to ensure that the restaurant has active legal consultation. If so, “the host/receptionist or representative of the company should inform the ICE that the lawyer is being contacted.” If the lawyer is capable of coming to the premises immediately, the company’s representative should request that the officers wait for the lawyer to come before proceeding, ”Fox Rothschild. This cannot keep ice from moving forward with a discovery, but it can help an employer if the search later to say that the snow ignored these requests.
And in general, the restaurants with large immigrant workforce – regardless of the status of documentation – will do good to contact local immigration lawyers, and will give employees to those numbers and resources. By working together, restaurants can protect their workers and customers.
“The life of immigrants and US -born inhabitants is deeply connected, and it is not possible to target unstable migrants without damaging citizens and American residents and immigrants of other situations,” says Han. “Everything they are doing is impractical, it is disastrous, expensive, it is going to hurt our economy. And immigrants are essential members of our communities. It is not going to solve the problems that Trump is thinking that they are going to solve. ,
