1. We Must Abolish ICE

From CNN: "With the President grossly misusing ICE and the agency broken beyond repair, I'm proposing legislation to abolish the agency."

2. Abolish ICE. It's doing more harm than good. 

From USA TODAY: "The idea of abolishing ICE is not radical or without merit. It's harming immigrant communities and hampering investigations, and we don't need it."

3. These Democrats want to abolish ICE

From CNN: "More Democrats have joined the growing list of names who want to abolish US Immigration and Customs Enforcement, more commonly known as ICE."
