Northern Nevada businesses could be faced with a boycott if a group of Hispanics get their way. The group has called the three-day boycott after Immigration and Enforcement Officials raided 11 McDonald’s restaurants and arrested 54 alleged illegal workers. The group is also calling for a general strike by all Hispanic workers on Wednesday to show the strength and scope of the Hispanic work force in the Northern Nevada economy.
