Know Your Rights
The Immigrant Law Center suggests the following if federal immigration agents come to your home.

Remember:

ICE needs a judge-signed warrant with your name and address to enter.

You can ask them to show you the warrant through the window or under the door.

If there is no valid warrant, you have the right to keep your door closed.

It's in what I'll call poster form -- a good one to put on one's door
