An email obtained by Fox News Digital from the Inter Faculty Organization (IFO), the union representing faculty at the seven Minnesota State universities, is urging members to participate in an economic "blackout" to protest the federal immigration enforcement operation in Minneapolis this month.
"The recent escalation of federal immigration enforcement presence under ‘Operation Metro Surge’ and the tragic killing of Minneapolis resident Renee Good have created an environment of fear and instability that impacts us all, but you and your colleagues can come together to demand an end to ICE presence in our state," the email from the IFO states.
ICE has faced heightened criticism since the shooting of Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis last week.
Good was a Minneapolis-based immigration activist serving as a member of ICE Watch.
"A broad coalition of Minnesota faith leaders, labor unions, and community organizations has called for a statewide Day of Truth and Freedom on Friday, January 23, 2026," it adds.
The union is asking participants of the "Day of Truth and Freedom" to take a personal day and not go to work and not go to school.
If rescheduling or canceling school is not an option, it asks members to instead host a "teach-in."
"We encourage faculty to facilitate discussions on relevant topics such as civil liberties, the history of labor movements, immigration policy, the US Constitution, or community safety," the email states.

“”””Good was a Minneapolis-based immigration activist serving as a member of ICE Watch.”””.....who was told to get out of the car but chose to hit an officer and get shot in the face instead. FAFO
An economic blackout huh? Well, I can see how that will work out so well in the frozen north.
Good luck with that.
LOL...they want a “teach in” to discuss:
* Immigration policy — we have a good immigration policy. You can’t just walk into the USA and live here illegally. It’s the law.
* US Constitution — it’s the Supreme Law of the Land. ICE was created by the US Government under the Constitution to protect the homeland from invaders
* Community safety — heavy police presence improves community safety. Deporting murders, rapists, thieves, child molesters, muggers, robbers and fraudsters improves community safety.
But, somehow I don’t think they will teach it that way.
The libs of Minnesota are acting like the mullahs of Iran.
Says the university faculty member who doesn’t have to produce any goods to be paid.
Mixed with the Maoists of China.
Challenge accepted. Work or starve.
The federal government needs to “freeze” all federal funds finding its way to the Minnesota universities involved.
We should not be paying people to hate us and destroy us.
Yep. They brainwash kids and then charge them $60k at 7-8% interest for the privilege, sending them out into the world unemployable, angry, and in debt.
Make it a month, a day does nothing.
Cool. Shut down all deliveries of fuel to Minnesota as long as it is in a state of insurrection.
This will hurt their own businesses and economy so I guess they are not so bright. 🙄
“We’re for Somali thieves!”
Let’s face it folks….we have a lot of stupid, criminal, can’t deal with reality citizens in this country.
A day without school for MN kids is a step toward intellectual freedom. If the academics pushing it were actually smart, they’d know it. Fortunately for the kids, they’re not.
Why not just do a hunger strike, losing some weight wouldn’t hurt most of these AWFLS.

Are we talking “Bobby Sands” here?
They had the postal workers union out protesting this morning. WTF?
The leftwing communists are increasing their war efforts....and yes, it’s a war on America!
