The Medford Democratic City Committee purchased 4000 “Know Your Rights” Red Cards in Spanish, Arabic, Portuguese, and Haitian, with approvals to purchase 4000 more. We’re trying to distribute them as much as possible to at-risk communities. If you know of a nonprofit organization that counts immigrants among its membership or otherwise interacts regularly with any one group, please fill out this form and we can mail them out.
Red cards are like helpful business cards that a holder can hand to an officer if they approach in public. They can also be slid under your front door if an officer knocks and begins to ask questions. Red cards are printed with your rights under the Constitution and a statement that you are exercising your right to remain silent.
