Chicago's Honey Butter Fried Chicken is among a couple of dozen restaurants across the country to sign onto a new "sanctuary restaurant" movement meant to offer safe workplaces for immigrants, Muslims and other communities they feel are under threat in the current political climate.
The movement is a joint project of ROC United, a national group that advocates for higher wages for restaurant workers, and Presente.org, whose mission is to "advance Latinx power" (Latinx is a gender-neutral alternative to Latino and Latina).
According to a news release Wednesday, sanctuary restaurants do not allow harassment of individuals based on immigrant or refugee status or race, religion, gender or sexual orientation; participate in peer networks to exchange ideas for protecting targeted workers; and agree to place prominent signs that state "SANCTUARY RESTAURANTS: A Place At the Table for Everyone" at their establishments.

Good, makes it easier for Trump’s ICE.
It’s also a sanctuary from my money.
I hope BLM doesn’t burn it down for stealing jobs from black people.
2017: "Let's defy the mean-old feds who want to enforce the very immigration law that SCOTUS upheld!"
Thereby exposing itself as a perfect target for enforcement of E-Verify for ICE under a Trump administration.
Never heard of them. But this shows Trump the first in line for raids looking for illegals.
EEOC...................
When they post their signs at least we will know where not to go.
The chicken with the spice to die for!
“We hire illegals cheap. Wages supplemented by govt benefits.”
I assume the goal is to get less expensive employees. That particular sort of employees will probably make up in pilferage what they don’t get in hourly wage, though.
Good. Let them learn the hard way.
Any company that does this needs to get a visit from ICE . And get shut down if they are violating federal law.
“Latinx”
Apparently they don’t know or reject a specific part of the Spanish language. IIRC, it is grammatically correct to use the male pronoun when describing mixed company.
Ready for the payroll audit .... /too funny
Yep. Got to keep the cheap illegal kitchen workers.
