Protests and Closures Are Planned Around Southern California in Opposition to ICE, the Trump Administration
The strike demands withdrawal of nearly 3,000 federal agents in Minnesota and an end to DHS and ICE funding following deadly shootings and aggressive crackdowns, organizers said.
- On January 30, 2026, National Shutdown urged a nationwide day of no work, no school and no shopping to protest Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement activity, especially in Minnesota where nearly 3,000 federal agents are deployed.
- Following two fatal shootings this month, recent Department of Homeland Security operations in Minnesota resulted in the deaths of Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti, while the Minnesota statewide strike on January 23 drew over 50,000 marchers and closed more than 700 businesses.
- Backed by labor and advocacy groups, organizers say National Shutdown includes support from CAIR, CodePink, and Minneapolis Regional Labor Federation representing over 80,000 workers, with MAKfam pledging 30% and Bon Vin 10% of Friday sales.
- Organizers say the shutdown will create an economic blackout, with hundreds of Minnesota businesses already closed and at least a dozen Denver metro shops joining on January 30.
- Celebrity and public endorsements have amplified the call, with Edward Norton saying `What they're doing in Minnesota with the strike needs to expand` and Senator Susan Collins urging ICE withdrawal.
