Summary
Why exactly are we organizing an ICE out on Friday and shutting down businesses in the Twin Cities?
ICE operations and protests have led to event cancellations and business closures in the Twin Cities, affecting the local economy and daily life.
Snowboarders were expected to fill Minneapolis on Saturday, but the event was canceled. Comedy star John Mulaney also canceled three nights at the Armory due to the presence of ICE agents.
“Commerce and business doesn’t do well when there’s uncertainty,” said Adam Duininck, president and CEO of the Minneapolis Downtown Council.
Duininck said restaurants are hit hardest, with closures not seen since 2020. They are still counting the temporary closures, which are definitely in the dozens.
