Phoenix, AZ – Rumors are circulating that the popular local restaurant, Tortas Manantial, may be on the verge of closing its doors or selling its franchise. The potential closure is reportedly linked to what some are calling a "media war" and political pressure. The restaurant, a known establishment in Phoenix, has a significant customer base among the Latino immigrant community, many of whom may not have legal documentation. Concerns have been raised regarding the impact of political climate and immigration policies on businesses that cater to this demographic. A local commentator stated, "Many people, especially Latino immigrants, have lost family members [due to deportations]. Many of these people feel afraid that one day ICE might arrive at their home or workplace." He added that businesses need to be intelligent and careful if their market is related to political issues. The situation at Tortas Manantial is seen by some as a direct consequence of this pressure, leading to the restaurant's inability to withstand the current environment. The future of Tortas Manantial remains uncertain, prompting discussions within the community about the broader implications of political discourse on local businesses and the lives of immigrants.
