Home Depot is the only company without explicit financial ties to ICE or its contractors (that I'm aware of) included here, and they're sure out there earning their place on the list. Shameful.
If you don't want your money going to ICE's enablers, learning more about these companies is a good place to start.
It can be overwhelming to see all the companies involved, but remember that boycotting/divesting doesn't have to be an all-or-nothing endeavor. Every dollar counts.

For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles.
You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.
For the crime of … complaining about government policy.
Core 1A speech.
With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.
