Important webinar trainings on interactions with ICE and other federal law enforcement agencies will be hosted by the New Mexico House Democrats in partnership with the ACLU of New Mexico and the New Mexico Immigrant Law Center (NMILC).
Three sessions are available:
Know Your Rights (English) – Friday, February 20, 2026 at 6:00pm
Register: https://mobilize.us/s/wFWIG7Know Your Rights / Conoce Tus Derechos (Spanish) – Tuesday, February 24, 2026 at 6:00pm

Know Your Rights informs citizens and noncitizens of their legal rights during interactions with federal law enforcement, what to do if those rights are violated, and how to keep encounters as safe as possible.
Constitutional Observer training teaches how to document ICE interactions, keep data secure, and ensure recordings and documentation are useful in holding federal law enforcement accountable for unlawful actions.
