	== Overview ==		== Overview ==
			Target is a United States–based retail corporation headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It operates a nationwide chain of big-box retail stores and an e-commerce business.

	== Boycott ==		== Boycott ==
			Target is listed for boycott due to repeated reports that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) used Target parking lots as staging areas for enforcement operations, including in Minneapolis (Lake Street / South Minneapolis area).<ref name="SpokesmanRecorder2025-12-17">[[https://spokesman-recorder.com/2025/12/17/ice-operations-minneapolis-target/ ICE Operations at Minneapolis Target Spark Protests and ... \| The Minnesota Spokesman-Recorder]] (Dec. 17, 2025)</ref><ref name="BLCKPress2025-12-04">[[https://www.blckpress.com/post/ice-staging-at-target-parking-lots-condemned-by-local-leaders ICE Staging at Target Parking Lots Condemned by Local Leaders \| BLCK Press]] (Dec. 4, 2025)</ref>

			Local officials in Minneapolis publicly addressed the broader pattern of federal agencies staging civil immigration enforcement operations in parking areas, including actions to restrict use of city-owned lots and provide signage for private property owners who want to prohibit such staging.<ref name="MplsEO2025-12-03">[[https://www.minneapolismn.gov/news/2025/december/mayor-executive-order/ Frey signs Executive Order protecting City parking lots from staging civil immigration enforcement operations \| City of Minneapolis]] (Dec. 3, 2025)</ref><ref name="FOX92025-12-03">[[https://www.fox9.com/news/ice-restricted-from-minneapolis-owned-areas-mayor-frey-orders-dec-2025 ICE restricted from Minneapolis-owned parking areas; mayor signs order \| FOX 9]] (Dec. 3, 2025)</ref>

			Because staging locations can enable and accelerate enforcement activity (and can heighten fear in targeted communities), ICE List documents companies and property owners whose premises are used for staging or operational support.

	== Background ==		== Background ==
			ICE operations frequently rely on staging areas for vehicle parking, coordination, and deployment. When private businesses provide space—explicitly or by allowing access—those locations can become part of the operational footprint of civil immigration enforcement.
