D.C. Restaurant Owners & Workers - ICE & National Guard Impact

Looking to speak with D.C. restaurant workers/owners Hi everyone! I’m a D.C. based student journalist covering immigrant communities and business in the DMV. I’m working on a story about how the increased ICE and National Guard presence in the D.C. area may be affecting immigrant-owned businesses and the people who work in them. I’m looking to speak with owners, managers, or workers who are willing to share their experiences. I am not going to disclose any individual’s immigration status or other sensitive information; I just want to hear from people. My focus is mainly restaurants but owners of other establishments please do not hesitate to reach out. I will be covering this beat for a while so please reach out at any time as I will likely be working on a story that would benefit from your input. If you’re willing to chat, feel free to comment or DM me. Thanks so much!!!
