ANTI-ICE Strike
National Sick Out: August 1, 2025
What's Happening?
On August 1, people across the U.S. will call in sick to protest ICE and its system of kidnapping and disappearing our neighbors.Every hours worked generates revenue for the oligarchs. Taking that away and living our lives on our terms costs them money and takes back power.This action is a powerful, collective refusal to be complicit in family separations, detentions, and deportations.This sick-out protest is our first official work stoppage as we build towards a general strike.
Our Demands
✊ An end to ICE and its system of kidnappings disguised as deportations
✊ Defund ICE and invest in community safety, housing, and care
✊ End workplace raids and local police collaboration with immigration enforcement
✊ Provide permanent legal status and protections for all undocumented people
Build power with us. Dissent by withholding your labor.
Organized by General Strike Carolinas, a coalition effort between the North and South Carolina chapters of General Strike U.S., in partnership with 50501 SC, 50501 NC, York County Rising, and ILM-AN.Contact:
