This is Katie from A Little Beacon Blog. Earlier this week, Here’s Why Kevin and Fox News reported that a Hilton franchise in Minneapolis rejected ICE agents as guests. In response, Hilton apologized to DHS and removed that franchise location from its system so that people could not reserve rooms there or use their Hilton points to redeem rooms.
Fox News reported: “Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman, who said he is a Hilton shareholder, praised Hilton’s handling of the quickly unfolding controversy.
“‘Apparently, Hilton Hotels is terminating the franchise effective immediately,’” Ackman wrote. “Credit to Nick Sorter for his investigative work.’”
Fox News reported that Nick Sorter, for his investigation, tried to book a block of rooms saying it was for immigration agents and was told the hotel had a ban on that.
Fox News reported that Ackerman said: “‘Hilton is one of the best-managed companies in the world. Its CEO, Chris Nassetta, is one of the most outstanding CEOs in the world. I know that he is highly respected by President Donald Trump and the current administration.’”
Therefore. This is a call for all reward point holders of any level - especially Diamond point holders - to call Hilton corporate to demand that that franchise be reactivated in the system, and to allow other franchise owners the freedoms to reject harassers and murderers from their reservation books.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

☀️💗 By the way, I’m wearing the Market hat today because I was feeling this shade of pink on this sunny day that is finally in the 40s and the ice is melting, which helps keep away drought we experience often lately. My views are my own, and not reflective of any logos my clothing. Thank you.
