Red Cards / Tarjetas Rojas

All people in the United States, regardless of immigration status, have certain rights and protections under the U.S. Constitution. The ILRC’s Red Cards help people assert their rights and defend themselves in many situations, such as when ICE agents go to a home.

Todas las personas en los Estados Unidos - sin importar su estatus migratorio - tienen derechos y protecciones bajo la constitución del país. Nuestras Tarjetas Rojas ayudan a los inmigrantes ejercer esos derechos y protegerse en muchas situaciones, como cuando agentes de inmigración visitan nuestras viviendas.

Francisco Nunez becomes a Citizen!

Francisco Nunez, a student from Mr. Trujillo’s Mid-City citizenship class on Saturday, passed his naturalization interview last Thursday and took the oath on the same day to become a United States citizen.

He visited Mr. Trujillo’s class today with donuts and appreciation for Mr. Trujillo: “Other teachers have you memorize the questions, but Mr. Trujillo teaches you the questions so it stays in your mind. I learned what this country is about and now I know more about this country than my native country. The history of this country is amazing. I am going to learn more about this country.”
Francisco arrived here in 1989 from Mexico was he was 11 years old.  He lives in Huntington Park and works as a parts manager in a body shop. Now that he’s a citizen, what’s next for Francisco? “I will vote! Then I will look for better job opportunities.”

Mr. Trujillo teaches his citizenship class every Saturday at Mid-City Learning Center (1510 Cambria St.). If you’re interested in becoming a citizen and want to learn more about this country, come join us!
