Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., supports nationwide anti-ICE shutdown taking place Friday but says her office will remain open to handle immigration cases and provide community support.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., pledged her „full support“ for a nationwide anti-ICE protest scheduled for Friday, but said her office would not participate.
Organizers of the „National Shutdown“ campaign have called for „no school, no work and no shopping“ on Friday, arguing that „enough is enough“ in the wake of fatal shootings involving Alex Pretti and Renee Good in Minneapolis amid a federal immigration crackdown across Minnesota.
„The people of the Twin Cities have shown the way for the whole country — to stop ICE’s reign of terror, we need to SHUT IT DOWN“, organizers wrote on their website.
