Minnesota’s anti-ICE push goes mainstream, with volunteers, trainings, and a planned strike

Following a fatal ICE incident in Minneapolis, Minnesotans have organized a broad, nonviolent anti-ICE movement. Volunteers monitor ICE movements near schools and other public spaces, attend trainings hosted by Monarca and Unidos MN, and take public actions to deter or document enforcement. The effort has drawn widespread community support, with businesses participating and leaders pushing for ICE to depart Minnesota, as a general strike is planned to demonstrate the movement’s breadth.
