Abolish ICE: Dismantle a Failed Agency

To: Sen. Cantwell, Sen. Murray, Rep. Gluesenkamp Perez

From: A verified voter in Camas, WA

July 11

Abolish ICE. Not reform it, not rebrand it — end it. The agency has strayed far beyond any legitimate immigration enforcement mandate and become a tool of fear, family separation, and unchecked power. I want you to introduce or co-sponsor legislation to dissolve ICE entirely. ICE's civil enforcement functions have no place in a country that values due process. Communities across this country live in terror of workplace raids and predawn arrests that tear apart families who have built lives here for decades. The agency operates with minimal oversight and a track record that should embarrass anyone defending it. Its functions can be redistributed to agencies with proper accountability structures. This is not a radical ask — it is a demand for a government that works with communities, not against them.
