The protests follow the killings of Alex Pretti, who was shot by U.S. Border Patrol agents on Saturday, and Renee Good, who was shot by an ICE agent on Jan. 7.

Extreme cold didn't stop the shutdown on Friday as some 100 faith leaders were arrested, residents stayed home from work, and an estimated 50,000 or more marched through downtown Minneapolis.

Organizers in Minnesota encouraged people to close their businesses, skip school and not show up for work as part of an anti-ICE protest on Jan. 23.

The risk of a partial government shutdown at the end of January is growing more likely amid renewed uproar after a second person in the span of a month was fatally shot by federal immigration authorities in Minneapolis.

Bets on a government shutdown happening by Jan. 31 are now at 78%, spiking over the weekend following another civilian death in Minnesota.

"1. ICE must leave Minneapolis. 2. Congress should not fund this version of ICE - that is seeking confirmation, chaos and dystopia."

"No work, no school, no shopping." Anti-ICE efforts continue to ramp up Minneapolis, coordinated by a coalition of socialists, communists, and labor unions.

The January 23 Day of Action is framed as a statewide pause for nonviolent moral reflection and collective action, culminating in a peaceful march and rally in downtown Minneapolis at 2:00 pm. While participation levels remain uncertain, organizers argue the scope of coordination already represents a turning point.
