What rights and protections do immigrants have when facing deportation?

In North Carolina, immigrants facing deportation have certain rights and protections that are in place to ensure they are treated fairly and humanely. Under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), immigrants are given the right to have a full removal hearing before a judge in Immigration Court. This hearing allows the immigrant to make their case and present any evidence they may have. The hearing also gives the immigrant the right to have an attorney, and if they cannot afford one, the court may appoint one for them. Additionally, immigrants can request protection from deportation due to certain factors such as fearing for their safety if they are returned to their native country. The INA and other laws also protect immigrants against discrimination based on their national origin or citizenship status. This includes protection from employers who may be retaliating against immigrants because of their legal status. It also includes protection from individuals or organizations who attempt to harass or otherwise intimidate immigrants facing deportation or removal proceedings. Immigrants have the right to fair and reasonable treatment while they are in the U.S. This includes standards of health and safety, humane treatment from law enforcement, and access to legal assistance. These rights are in place to ensure that immigrants are treated with dignity and respect, even while facing deportation.
