WILMINGTON \u2014 Governor Matt Meyer and state leadership unveiled two educational videos today focused on informing Delaware residents about their fundamental civil rights during encounters with federal immigration officers.<\/p>

The educational materials encourage Delaware citizens to understand their legal protections and were developed as part of a “Know Your Rights” campaign launched by state officials.<\/p>

The videos emphasize the constitutional protections available to all Delaware residents when interacting with federal law enforcement agencies, particularly those involved in immigration enforcement activities.<\/p>

State leaders say the initiative represents an effort to ensure residents are properly informed about their legal rights and protections under federal and state law during any encounters with federal authorities.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
