Oregon\u2019s top<\/a> law enforcement officer rolled out what she called bilingual “Sanctuary Promise Community Toolkit<\/a>” to help residents refresh their knowledge of the Beaver State\u2019s relevant laws.<\/p>\n

“Every person has the right to live, work, play, and learn safely in Oregon<\/a>, period,” Oregon Democratic Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum said in a statement announcing the toolkit.<\/p>\n

In 1987, Oregon lawmakers passed then-Rep. Rocky Barilla\u2019s HB 2314 in response to several raids by INS \u2013 the U.S. Immigration & Naturalization Service, which transformed into USCIS, DHS and ICE in 2003.<\/p>\n

The law is largely considered the first “sanctuary state” policy in the country.<\/p>\n

Rosenblum explicitly acknowledged Oregon\u2019s place in that regard, noting the law prohibits state and local law enforcement resources from being used to apprehend suspects charged solely with being present in the U.S. without papers.<\/p>\n

A press release from the attorney general\u2019s office noted Barilla\u2019s bill passed “nearly unanimously” in 1987 but that by 2024, sanctuary laws have become an “intensely partisan issue.”<\/p>\n

“I asked my Civil Rights Unit here at the Oregon<\/a> DOJ to do whatever we could to provide the people, businesses, and local governments of our state with easy-to-read materials to help them know their rights and educate others, and I\u2019m so pleased with what they\u2019ve put together,” Rosenblum said in her statement.<\/p>\n

In the toolkit, documents relating to the 1987 law\u2019s passage are available for easy public consumption, along with a “conversation” with figures involved in getting the law passed.<\/p>\n

The toolkit includes several FAQs, including “how do I prepare myself and my family for encounters with ICE or other federal immigration authorities?” \u2013 “Is there a place I can call to report ICE or other federal immigration authorities active right now in my community?” and “After an encounter with ICE or other federal immigration authorities, what information should I write down?”<\/p>\n

Oregon also hosts a statewide “hotline” to report sanctuary law violations.<\/p>\n

There are also links to press coverage, as well as a separate “law enforcement bias response” toolkit.<\/p>\n

Rosenblum said she also recommends Oregonians discuss the issue with family in the next few weeks to “know your rights\u2026 and make a plan for what to do if immigration officials come to your home or place of business.”<\/p>\n

“Knowing your rights in advance is essential,” she said.<\/p>\n

President-elect Trump tapped former ICE Director Thomas Homan as his “border czar” \u2013 succeeding Vice President Kamala Harris.<\/p>\n
