Oak Park mayor releases statement on ICE raids

The letter included an "ICE Workplace Enforcement Guide" by the American Business Immigration Coalition with a checklist of information for employees and employers. 

For employers, the checklist states:

• ICE does not have the right to entry without a signed judicial warrant.
• Do not hand over personal files immediately. You have the right to review them 72 hours beforehand.
• Provide trainings for staff on what to do during a raid. Contact ABIC to set up your training.

For employees:

• Remain silent and do not sign anything before speaking to a lawyer.
• Stay calm and don't run out of the work place. You're not required to disclose your citizenship status or national origin.
• Seek a trusted immigration attorney for legal counsel. 

The letter also recommends contacting the National Immigration Justice Center for legal needs
