We demand the total abolition of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). This agency has become an unaccountable, unconstitutional force that terrorizes communities while solving no real problem.
Why ICE Must Go
ICE operates with appalling cruelty. In FY2025, over 310,000 people were locked in detention centers where 31 died in custody—an all-time high . Six have already died in 2026. Agents conduct warrantless raids, separate families, and have fatally shot U.S. citizens like Renee Good in Minneapolis . This is not law enforcement; it is state violence.
The crisis at our border did not appear from nowhere. Decades of U.S. intervention in Central America—arming death squads in El Salvador, propping up regimes, imposing economic policies that displaced millions—created the conditions people are fleeing . Now we punish them for surviving what we helped cause.
The Fight Is Now
Right now, Republicans have offered to fund DHS without ICE enforcement, but Democrats refuse—demanding instead to reform an agency beyond reform . Compromise is surrender. ICE was built on a post-9/11 framework that securitized immigrant communities. The Department of Homeland Security itself was a mistake . You cannot reform an agency designed to treat humans as threats.
This Is a Primary Issue
Grassroots movements are already deciding elections. In Pennsylvania, candidates are running on abolishing ICE to cheers from crowds . In Minnesota, the governor created a council to document ICE's harm because federal accountability is nonexistent . Democratic voters are demanding more—and in 2026 primaries, candidates who refuse will lose.
Some say "abolish ICE" is politically dangerous. We say: compromising on human rights is what loses. Voters want leaders who stand for something.
We Demand
· Total abolition of ICE
· End all immigration detention
· Repeal the laws that created this system
· Reinvest funds into communities, not cages
No agency should have the power to disappear people without due process.
