Hilton: No Room for ICE!
To Christopher J. Nasseta, CEO of Hilton Worldwide:
I will not use the hospitality services provided by the Hilton system until the corporation ensures that it is not housing ICE agents. By refusing service to an agency that terrorises communities and tears families apart, Hilton is fulfilling its commitment to avoid complicity in human rights abuses.

Tens of thousands of people shut down the state capital on Friday after US immigration agents shot nurse Alex Pretti dead in the street. For weeks, neighbours have organised, kept watch and protected each other as armed agents terrorise their neighbourhoods.
And it’s working! ICE commander Gregory Bovino is hitting the road soon – but it will take every ounce of people power we have to get all agents out of Minnesota for good.
We can make it harder for ICE to operate if we stop the corporations that are profiting from the chaos. Hilton, the famous international hotel chain, is welcoming room reservations from everyone, including ICE. But we can’t let them give these agents a fluffy pillow to lay their heads on after they roam the city of Minneapolis, attack residents, and tear families apart. Add your name to the pledge to boycott Hilton now.
