Target is closing 175 of its stores as protests continue to erupt across the country. A majority of the stores are in Minnesota, California, and New York. The rest are in various other states. The company says its focus is on employee safety and helping communities heal.

“We are heartbroken by the death of George Floyd and the pain it is causing communities across the country. At this time, we have made the decision to close a number of our stores. We anticipate most stores will be closed temporarily,” according a written statement announcing the closures. Our focus will remain on our team members’ safety and helping our community heal.”

The company said any team members impacted by closures would be paid up to 14 days of the scheduled hours.
