Salt Lake businesses post signs to keep ICE agents out

Zoom in: The signs read: "No I.C.E. allowed" and "I.C.E. out of Utah."

What they're saying: "We're seeing a growing dissatisfaction with how immigration enforcement is being handled in this country," Dominique Byrd, executive director of Comunidades Unidas, told Axios.

State of play: The nonprofit and the local chapter of Indivisible, a progressive group, distributed the anti-ICE posters earlier this month, with a focus on west-side businesses. They also offered "know-your-rights" trainings for employers, she said.

• Byrd noted local business owners carry influence in their communities, and the posters could help impacted customers feel safe and supported.
• So far, about 150 signs have been distributed, though not every business that takes one displays it.

What's next: Organizers for Comunidades Unidas and Indivisible plan to expand their door-to-door efforts in other Salt Lake neighborhoods this weekend, Byrd added.
