[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If that is the case, I hope they are refunding your money for that day.  [/quote]

For real.

Then I'd seriously start looking for another daycare.[/quote]

Yes, I pay them for a service, if they -by choice- decide to close for a reason not spelled out in advance such as weather, I would expect a refund.  I have to report to work and by them closing I lose out on my pay if I have to stay home.  [/quote]

Really?! It's one damn day for them to engage in civil disobedience and stand up for themselves. If ours closes I am taking my kid to work to amplify the point. Yes, I do realize not everyone can do that and there will be some discomfort... but, THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE. [/quote]

Part of civil disobedience is being willing to accept the consequences of your actions for what you perceive to be the greater good. If you commit an illegal act as part of civil disobedience, you are not absolved of the crime and are expected to serve your sentence and/or pay whatever penalty is applicable.

In this context, if the daycare chose to close to suppprt immigrants (their staff or more broadly) they should be expected to accept the consequences of their action which is forgoing they money they were to have received for providing a service that they refused to in protest.

Part of civil disobedience is often sacrificing for the cause.[/quote]
