The Twin Cities chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America is encouraging Minnesota workers<\/a> to use “sick and safe time” to protest ICE on Friday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Taking off work can be hard, even when there aren\u2019t fascist ICE agents terrorizing our streets,” a post<\/u><\/a> this week from the Twin Cities Democratic Socialists of America reads.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“But no matter what your employment situation is, we\u2019re here to help you organize your workplace and participate in the strike on January 23rd\u2014whether that means navigating non-union management or educating your friendly yet uninformed boss on why they should shut down for the day.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

ICE SAYS 2 DEMONSTRATORS WERE ARRESTED IN MINNESOTA FOR ALLEGEDLY ASSAULTING OFFICERS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Protests are planned in Minnesota on Friday to oppose ICE, which has faced heightened criticism since the shooting of Renee Nicole Good<\/u><\/a> in Minneapolis on Jan. 7.<\/p>\n

“Twin Cities DSA is marching and rallying with unions and other community members on January 23rd because this military occupation is a war on the working class,” the post reads. “Workers have the leverage. When we withhold our labor, the economy grinds to a halt. No work, no school, no shopping. Only community, conscience, and collective resistance to ICE and injustice. Let\u2019s melt ICE out of MN.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Slides in the post also reference Minnesota\u2019s Earned Sick and Safe Time (ESST)<\/a> law, where they write if, “you are out for only ONE DAY, you DO NOT have to provide documentation of the reason for your absence to your employer.”<\/p>\n

TRUMP URGES DHS, ICE TO PUBLICIZE ARRESTS, SAYS CRACKDOWN IS ‘SAVING MANY INNOCENT LIVES’<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“Take a mental health day with ESST if you don\u2019t want to explain why you\u2019re not working,” one of the slides in the post reads.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The post also encourages workers to ask their employers to close down<\/a> for the day if management is sympathetic.<\/p>\n

“If your employer is friendly, talk to them about closing for the day,” it reads. “Trump and ICE are detrimental to business \u2013 if community suffering isn\u2019t enough, share the impact from an economic perspective.”<\/p>\n

DHS SAYS ICE AGENTS RAMMED BY VEHICLES AMID MINNEAPOLIS ENFORCEMENT SURGE: ‘AGGRESSIVELY ASSAULTED’<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

A separate Instagram post<\/u><\/a> from a group called Ice Out of Twin Ports, which will be part of an anti-ICE march on Thursday and advertising a sit-in on Friday, says, “White folks need to put their bodies in the way and first do everything they can to make sure Black folks are not subject to police violence.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

One of the techniques highlighted in the Ice Out of Twin Ports post encourages protesters to strike police officers, writing, “Push or pull the cop off the arrestee. Break their hold by hitting the cop\u2019s hand.”<\/p>\n

Another technique suggested to protesters is to “Open the cop car\/paddy wagon doors<\/a> and let people out. Learn how to break zip tie cuffs with a bobby pin and set arrestees free.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital<\/u><\/a> reached out to the Twin Cities Democratic Socialists of America and Ice Out of Twin Ports for comment.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
