Support for abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement is surging in the wake of the killing of Renee Nicole Good and officers’ increasingly violent conduct in Minneapolis and across the United States. Democrats in Congress, however, are clinging to the idea that the agency, which has become the tip of the spear in President Donald Trump’s authoritarian crackdown, can be reformed instead.
On Jan. 9, ICE officer Jonathan Ross shot and killed Good, a Minneapolis resident. Since then, multiple surveys have been published showing support nearing all-time highs for abolishing ICE.
