Boycott Movement: Targeting industries and companies that profit from the deportation machine.

The following companies have been historically tied to anti-immigrant policies and exploitative practices against undocumented communities in the United States. Moreover, they profit from Immigration Detention & Deportations.

Private Prison Corporations (GEO Group, CoreCivic)

This Boycott is against any companies, banks, or services that invest in these corporations.

How to Make the Boycott Effective:

1. Build Coalitions: Unite with labor unions, faith-based organizations, activist groups, and grassroots movements.

2. Use Social Media: Launch a #BoycottDeportationProfiteers campaign to expose these companies.

3. Educate the Public: Create flyers, videos, and toolkits to show people how these companies contribute to mass deportations.

4. Economic Pressure: Focus on industries and sectors that rely heavily on immigrant labor.

Additional Actions to Consider:

• Don’t Buy Products from Companies Owned by Trump Allies.

• Organize a General Strike with immigrant workers.

• Redirect Money to Community-Owned Businesses: Support local businesses and co-ops that share values of solidarity.

Historical Precedent:

• The 1965 Delano Grape Strike led by the United Farm Workers was a powerful boycott movement that brought awareness to the exploitation of farmworkers and won significant labor rights.

• "A Day Without Immigrants" protests in 2006 and 2017 were successful economic actions that showed the impact of immigrants on the economy.

Movement's Message:

“We won’t fund our own oppression.”

“Your deportation machine runs on our labor. Shut it down by refusing to give your money to companies that profit from our pain.”

Share this Boycott and turn it into a Movement:

1. Create a List of Targets and share it widely.

2. Distribute Flyers in English and Spanish in immigrant communities.

3. Launch an Online Petition calling for companies to end their partnerships with ICE and CBP.

4. Use Community Meetings to Educate People on why these companies should be boycotted.

Boycotts Work!

Economic boycotts hit companies where it hurts most—their profits. Historically, civil rights movements have used economic pressure to force social change. It is time to remind the world that we have power.
