FLAGSTAFF — A national shutdown is planned for Friday, Jan. 30 as part of the growing opposition to the ICE crackdown operation in Minneapolis, Minn. Under the banner of"No Work, No School. No Shopping. Stop Funding Ice," organizers hope the action will convince the Trump administration to end their operation in Minneapolis. "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," the organization reported on its website. Protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) intensified during the past few weeks following the shooting deaths of ICE watchers Renee Nicole Good on Jan. 7 and Alex Pretti on Jan. 24. Another protest against ICE and surveillance cameras is scheduled for 2 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 31 near Flagstaff City Hall. In Flagstaff, ICE opponents previously gathered in front of the Flagstaff City Hall on Jan. 10 and 23 to wave signs and express their opposition to the Minnesota ICE operation.
