Chicago Activists Tell Undocumented Immigrants Not To Open Their Doors

         Chicago activists urged undocumented immigrants not to open their doors following a weekend of raids by U.S. Immigration and Customs     Enforcement.



    Francisco, an Albany Park resident who identified himself by his first name only, described how his house was previously raided. “My home was entered by     three U.S. marshals and one immigration agent,” he said. After running Francisco’s fingerprints, the agents saw he had prior deportation orders and     detained him immediately. “My recommendation [to people] who are facing this kind of threat is to not open the door!”



    “Really anybody who has arrived in the last two years from Central America is vulnerable,” said Fred Tsao, senior policy counsel at ICIRR. “There is a lot     of uncertainty with what ICE is going to do.”
