WASHINGTON — Many local bars and restaurants will stay closed or offer limited service Thursday in support of a protest against President Donald Trump’s immigration policies.
The protest, which is being called a “Day Without Immigrants,” is being organized in D.C. and other cities, including Austin, Boston, Des Moines, Houston, Minneapolis-Saint Paul, New York and Philadelphia.

yawn
These people are beyond stupid and they Trump hate is grade school crap!
They can not even call it what it really is.
And it gives places that are interested in making money the perfect chance to make it.
Oh yeah, Thursday is a typical slow day at bars anyway.
They should do this at least once a week..then go out of business
Closed eatery = ICE target
Closed bars? Maybe this will cause people to “sober up”? ;)
The full list. A whole dozen.
1. Restaurants Jaleo, Oyamel and Zaytinya
2. Sweetgreen
3. Busboys and Poets
4. Jetties
5. Surfside
6. Boundary Stone
7. Circa Bistro
8. Hank’s Oyster Bar and Hank’s Pasta Bar
9. Brookland Pint, Meridian Pint and Smoke & Barrel
10. Pizzeria Paradiso
11. TaKorean
12. Toki Underground
The communists, media and academia deliberately use ‘immigrant’ in place of illegal alien. They want people to believe that their status is somehow ambiguous, and that they shouldn’t come to their own conclusions until they’re told what to believe.
This kind of thing never happened when Ted Kennedy was still around.
Nowhere will do this; I’ll bet even most Mexican restaurant and markets won’t do this.
I wonder if the restaurants that are closed will still pay their illegals on that day.
Good job, and thanks.
I can make taco bowls and margaritas at home.
Most owners can probably afford the $2.50 an hour they pay them to take the day off.
Thanks, that makes a handy boycott list or places where we should show up with ICE caps and deport now signs.
Only a dozen?
Then it shouldn’t take too long to run the employee lists through E-Verify and start the fines.
Eat out
Less chance of E. coli or spit in your food
How much revenue are they and their waitresses going to lose due to this STUPID STUNT?
Waitresses will lose a lot from the tips they won't get. Owners won't lose much; they pay the illegals under the table, and probably about $2.50 an hour anyway.
