Ahead of Election, LAS Re-Releases Know Your Rights Information for Protesters

The Legal Aid Society re-released Know Your Rights information today covering a range of topics to help keep safe New Yorkers who may choose to protest following the election, as reported by El Diario.

“Las personas pueden reunirse y expresar sus preocupaciones sobre nuestra democracia y el proceso electoral. Dado el historial del NYPD en infringir estos derechos, es esencial que quienes decidan protestar estén informados y preparados para enfrentar los abusos,” said Jennvine Wong, Staff Attorney with the Cop Accountability Project at The Legal Aid Society.
