Hundreds of US Galleries Close for National for National Strike Against ICE

Hundreds of U.S. businesses and students joined a nationwide strike and protests opposing Immigration and Customs Enforcement actions after recent fatal shootings by federal agents.

  • Several downtown and neighborhood businesses in Cincinnati shuttered their doors on Friday, January 30, 2026, including Archetype Fine Jewelry and Body Piercing, Brown Bear Bakery, and Downboundbooks, joining a nationwide economic blackout protesting ICE.
  • Calling for `no work, no school, no shopping`, organizers said the protest responded to increased ICE activity and the fatal shootings of Alex Pretti and Renee Good, with Pretti shot on Saturday.
  • Some local businesses remained open but pledged to donate proceeds to charities supporting immigrants, while at least 200 students from La Habra High School and Sonora High School marched to La Habra City Hall.
  • U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said it supports peaceful protest but condemns actions obstructing operations, amid legal and political consequences mounting, according to Statement 109, 116.
  • The movement, dubbed `ICE Out of Everywhere`, aims to show solidarity with Minnesota and pressure Congress and DHS funding debates, escalating nationwide protests over ICE activity.
