On “A Day Without Immigrants,” Latino businesses across the U.S. closed to protest increased deportations under the Trump administration. In Minneapolis and St. Paul, 350 to 400 Latino-owned businesses, including Colonial Market, participated in the protest. While the store closed for sales, owner Daniel Hernandez kept it open to assist the community, helping undocumented immigrants fill out Delegation of Parental Authority (DOPA) forms. These forms authorize others to care for children if parents are deported, preventing the children from being placed in shelters. The store provided this service for free, helping over 500 families. Notary Nancy Peralta supported the process, comforting nervous parents. The effort aimed to minimize the trauma for families facing uncertainty about deportation.
