The coordinated effort, supported by a coalition of immigrant justice groups, labor unions, and faith leaders, helped increase political pressure to reduce ICE’s presence in Minnesota and demonstrated the evolving nature of collective action in the face of contemporary legal and political challenges. Despite ongoing violence and the eventual end of the operation, the event highlighted the potential of community organizing and labor solidarity to influence immigration enforcement policies. pubtype: Periodical doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of New Internationalist is the property of New Internationalist and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
