In the United States, dozens of protesters were forcibly removed from City Council after their second day of demonstrations against anti-immigrant operations in New Orleans. Carrying signs reading *No to collaboration with I.C.E.*, protesters demanded that city leaders establish ICE-free zones. When demonstrators refused to leave the podium, councilors suspended the session, which later resumed inside City Hall. Police ordered protesters to vacate the building, but while some complied, many were pushed or carried away by force.
