Be the Change! How You Can Stand with Your Immigrant Neighbors:

1. Press Rockland Legislators to pass the
Safety & Dignity for All Act
Prohibits County agencies from sharing information about community members with DHS/ICE.
Use our toolkit which has scripts, phone numbers, and email addresses.

2. Ask your NY Lawmakers to support the following legislation:
A=Assembly, S=Senate

  • Access to Representation Act (A.270/S.141)
    Guarantees the right to legal counsel for immigrants in deportation proceedings.
  • New York for All Act (A3506/S2235)
    Proposes a prohibition on state and local resources being used to carry out federal deportation agenda. 
  • BUILD Act (A.2689/S4538)
    Provides grants to expand legal defense and workforce development for immigrants.

3. Print and distribute Know Your Rights cards at local businesses, particularly ones frequented by immigrants.
