06 Feb Should the federal government eliminate U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)?
“President Trump promised strict actions against illegal immigration. ICE is being viewed as a symbol of the Trump administration’s aggressive immigration policies. ICE stands for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, an agency within the Department of Homeland Security. ICE was created in 2003, as a part of the government’s reorganization after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
There is a strong demand to abolish ICE as it is widely believed that it is separating families at the US-Mexico border. Heartbreaking images of children being separated from their parents at the borders have fueled agitation against ICE.
However, a different US agency—Customs and Border Protection, which oversees the Border Patrol—is responsible for policing the country’s borders and they have been pioneers in enforcing the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” policy, by arresting adults who illegally enter the US, and separating them from their children.
