The movement was started by a 23-year-old TikTok user named Carlos Eduardo Espina who boasts over 2.4 million followers on TikTok and over 88,000 subscribers to his YouTube channel. He created the Facebook group on Jan. 31 and has since gained 29,000 users as well as support from some progressive lawmakers.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., was quoted on the movement saying, "Strikes, general strikes—whatever it takes for people to realize the value of immigrant labor. I mean, you take a date to a nice restaurant—who do you think is making the food? Who do you think has the hands that feed us? I support any sort of action or efforts that our immigrant community and those who stand in solidarity with them are committing to highlight the necessity that they have in our system."

Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., agreed, calling the protest, an "excellent initiative."

"1500 Palestinians face expulsion in #Jerusalem. 200 protesters have been injured. 9 children have been killed," he wrote. "Sanctions on South Africa helped free its black people - it’s time for sanctions on Israel to free Palestinians. Join the call. #SheikhJarrah."

He later apologized for his "inflammatory" and "disrespectful" comments.
