Minnesota Service Provides Translation Help for Immigration Issues

Minnesota-Based Service Offers Free Legal Language Support to Oromo Community Facing ICE Contact

MINNESOTA, USA – A crucial resource is being highlighted for members of the Oromo community across the United States who may encounter U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Global Translation & Interpreter, a service based in Minnesota, is offering free pro bono assistance to ensure individuals understand their rights and any legal documents presented to them.

The service emphasizes a critical piece of advice: if a person does not speak English or cannot read and understand documents, they should not sign anything and should immediately request a translation.

“If they do not speak English, they can ask for an interpreter or a translator,” the announcement states. “If they cannot read or understand any documents, they should not sign them and ask for the document to be translated for them.”

This guidance is essential for protecting legal rights during encounters with immigration authorities. Signing a document without full comprehension can have serious, unintended consequences for an individual’s immigration case.

How to Access Help:
Oromo individuals anywhere in the United States who are approached by ICE or need language assistance for immigration-related matters can access this free support by:

The service, promoted with the message “If someone needs help you can share with them. Thank you for all you do,” underscores the importance of community knowledge-sharing. Advocates stress that being aware of and disseminating such resources can be a vital form of mutual aid.

The offer of pro bono (free professional) translation and interpretation is seen as a significant support for immigrant communities navigating complex legal systems where language barriers can create substantial vulnerability.

Community leaders encourage individuals to save the number and share the information widely to ensure those in need know where to turn for confidential language assistance.
