Airport Safety

We should all be able to travel to visit our loved ones and explore new places. But right now, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is going after immigrants in new and harmful ways. Traveling through U.S. airports can be risky, even if you have active or pending legal immigration status and/or have traveled without issues in the past. That’s why it’s more important than ever to know your rights and how to prepare for risks as you travel.

This resource from the National Immigration Law Center gives travel safety tips and other resources on how to understand the risks and prepare yourself and your family. Available in 12 Asian languages below.
