Every time this is discussed, people say they can't just stop working because they are financially desperate. We understand this.

I believe over 10% of the US work force makes more than $100k/yr. If you have been making this kind of salary for even a year, you likely have enough savings to withstand a prolonged general strike. And I believe the NLRA protects most workers from being fired for participating in a concerted strike related to safety. Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse was just executed in the street by ICE in Minnesota; the cause for public safety is clear. I believe we are at the point where we need the more privileged workers to make some sacrifice for the greater good, or else things will escalate in an irreversible and violent manner.

We need this section of the work force to organize a general strike with a clear list of demands related to public safety. I believe we can end ICE occupations by putting pressure on all sectors of the economy. We know the Trump organization is totally corrupted by corporations and will be on their heals once bottom lines are affected. If you believe your absence from work will have a significant impact, please participate. I believe our core demand is simple: halt ICE operations around the country.

I don't have experience organizing a strike, but I can't sit idle while it so clear to me that we need collective action now. Let's please discuss this option and if you agree, help spread the idea.
