Monica Richards, a co-owner at popular Houston Mexican restaurant Picos, told The Washington Post that people sent “horrific” messages to the establishment through social media and over the phone, some of which threatened to report staff members to Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE). “People don’t understand unless you’re in our business what it felt like, how hard it was to go through everything we went though during COVID. For people to be negative toward us for trying to remain safe, so that this doesn’t continue to happen, just makes zero sense to us,” said Richards, one of Picos founders Arnaldo and Janice Richards’ daughters, in comments to the Post....
