Know Your Rights

Red Cards (Tarjetas Rojas) help individuals understand and assert their constitutional rights in the U.S., regardless of immigration status. They offer general guidance—not legal advice—and are available in multiple languages thanks to community partnerships. Individuals are encouraged to consult a legal service provider for personalized help.

NOTE: Make sure to verify the language on the card before providing it to your client.

Alert

The ILRC is aware there are some social media posts making Red Cards available for a fee. Just remember this: the Red Cards are FREE, there is no FEE! Please be cautious when seeking Red Cards—the ILRC does not vet other production sources or content. The best way to get the Red Cards is to download them from this site.

The only form in which the ILRC offers paid orders—via RedCardOrders.com—is for sustainability in offsetting the cost of printing/shipping for those with the means to cover the expense. This normally applies to large organizations seeking hundreds, even thousands of Red Cards. These are printed at a union shop and do not generate a profit for the ILRC.

Print Your Own

The artwork for printing your own cards is available below. These are formatted as standard 3.5” by 2” business cards. Translated versions are designed to support monolingual immigrants translate their rights with immigration officers.

Any print or copy shop should be able to work from these files.
You can also print them on your own personal printer.
We strongly recommend printing these with rounded corners (rounding out the corners with scissors when cutting) and using durable bright paper, which allows them to be easily found in a wallet or purse and contrast well with black ink.
Lamination is optional and best with rounded corners.

NOTE: Make sure to verify the language on the card before providing it to your client.
