Rhode Island Businesses Unite Against ICE Enforcement
August 5, 2025 - 06:02
In a powerful show of solidarity, dozens of businesses across Rhode Island have pledged to keep Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents out of their establishments. This commitment stems from a growing concern over the rights of individuals and the impact of federal immigration policies on local communities.
The pledge emphasizes that ICE cannot legally enter businesses to detain individuals without proper cause. Business owners are standing firm, asserting that they will not allow their premises to be used for enforcement actions that violate the rights of their customers and employees.
This movement reflects a broader trend of resistance against aggressive immigration enforcement, highlighting the role of local businesses as safe spaces for all individuals, regardless of their immigration status. By taking this stand, these Rhode Island businesses are not only protecting their patrons but also advocating for a more just and equitable society. The collective action aims to foster an environment where everyone feels secure and valued, free from the fear of unwarranted detention.
