ICE and immigration agents

“We need to hold those accountable for unlawful and unconstitutional acts, at the agency and individual level.”

“Melissa Bean is leading on the issue by calling for DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s firing or formal removal from office.”

“ICE agents are untrained and unchecked. Greater oversight, including body cams are necessary and should be federally mandated.”

“When ICE or CBP act outside of their scope of authority, local police should have the ability to order them to cease and desist or arrest them, in the interest of safety.”

“Demand accountability and constitutional due process in immigration enforcement”

“Hold rogue ICE agents accountable for following unlawful orders from the Executive Branch.”

“Sponsored the ICE Breaker Act, the nation’s first effort to bar individuals who served in ICE under Donald Trump’s second administration and engaged in abusive immigration enforcement from joining the Maryland State Police, protecting the integrity and trust of our law enforcement agencies.”

“I'll also demand accountability from immigration officers and officials, including real consequences for abuse of deportees and unlawful practices, and I'll push to close detention camps that have failed to meet basic standards of humane treatment.”

“Leverage the government funding process in the Senate to demand immediate reforms. Democrats must condition support for the Homeland Security Department budget on meaningful immigration reforms — including a ban on masks, warrant requirements for arrests, visible identification for officers, an end to racial profiling, reforms to ICE’s recruitment and training practices, and accountability for abuse and law-breaking.”

“Demand full, independent investigations into the murders of Renee Nicole Good, Alex Pretti, and other violent incidents, including ICE use-of-force policies and chain of command. Hold field hearings on ICE abuses nationwide, and document instances of abuse, violent conduct, and violation of constitutional rights.”

“Reining in ICE and restoring accountability, requiring body cameras, standard law enforcement uniforms with visible ID, and prohibiting masked agents.”

“Federal Immigration officers are not above the law. Peggy is calling for an end to the aggressive sweeps against immigrants who pose no danger to our communities.”

“The federal government laid this chaos and disruption on Minnesotans’ doorstep. Kristi Noem, Greg Bovino, and everyone involved in Operation Metro Surge must be held accountable for violating the law and due process. The federal government must repair and restore what it’s taken from Minnesota.”

“Reform the system to hold ICE accountable — mandating body cameras, ending masked raids, increasing training standards, and taking on politicians who suspend our constitutional rights and endanger our communities.”

“We need a positive vision for how we fix our immigration system so that it actually helps working people, protects all of our basic constitutional rights, and includes accountability and oversight for immigration agents, just like any other public employee.”

“Demand accountability for federal immigration agents. The problems that led to scenes of terror in American streets are bigger than ICE. It’s a fundamental failure of leadership at DHS. Anyone in the chain of command that violated the law and peoples’ basic rights during enforcement or detention should be held to account with criminal prosecution and congressional investigations.”

“Restructuring, reform, and oversight. Enforcing the law cannot come at the expense of our constitutional rights or the safety of our neighbors and communities.”

“Stronger oversight and accountability for federal immigration agencies”

“We also need to ensure ICE is following the law, accountable to the American people, and protecting, not hurting, our communities.”

“We must abolish ICE. It is abhorrent and anti-American to see ICE agents disappearing people into detention centers or deporting them to danger. We can and should enforce federal laws against drug trafficking, human trafficking, terrorism, and other violent threats without creating a secret police force to kidnap people without recourse.”

“Abolish ICE. Abolish ICE and pass comprehensive immigration reform to create a fair, transparent, and accountable immigration system that protects civil rights and rebuilds trust in our communities.”

“I’ve outlined a plan to stop ICE’s lawlessness in the short term while working to abolish ICE from the ground up in the longer term.”

“I’ve outlined a plan to stop ICE’s lawlessness in the short term while working to abolish and replace or rebuild ICE from the ground up in the longer term.”

“Abolish ICE, which has only existed since 2003. Long-term reform should include a reversal of the post-9/11 establishment of ICE inside of the Department of Homeland Security. The 2003 shift split up the Immigration and Naturalization Service, establishing an enforcement agency divorced from the broader mission of implementing a comprehensive immigration policy consistent with American traditions. ICE has become a lawless, unaccountable, poorly-run agency. Immigration enforcement authority must once again sit within an agency dedicated to a broader mission.”

“This agency exists to control our communities, not to keep us safe. It was created in 2002: we can return to a world where it does not exist.”

“Abolish ICE and the deportation machine”

“The 15-second spot, produced by FIGHT Agency, highlights Abdul as the only candidate in the race to support abolishing ICE – a position he has held since 2018.”

“While Stevens has repeatedly voted to bolster ICE, Abdul has long argued that the agency is fundamentally incompatible with a humane and just immigration system and should be abolished.”

“We must replace our broken and unpredictable immigration policy with a clear, comprehensive, and fair system. That begins with Abolishing ICE.”

“ICE has become a tool for autocracy. Its culture of aggression, impunity, and disregard for the rule of law cannot be reformed or retrained. It must be abolished.”

“Peggy believes that ICE is out of control and that we must dismantle the agency and reimagine an immigration system rooted in dignity, safety, and due process for all.”

“Fundamentally restructuring immigration enforcement agencies, including abolishing ICE”

“I’m fighting to increase access to critical services, make LA more affordable, hold folks accountable, and abolish ICE.”

“Abolish ICE & Immigration Justice”

“She'll fight to abolish ICE, win a pathway to citizenship, protect schools and workplaces from enforcement actions, and build an immigration system based on dignity, not fear.”

“Abolish ICE and end the mass deportation apparatus”

“Abolish ICE”

“Abolir y procesar a ICE Esta agencia, llena de neonazis en todos sus rangos, no puede ser reformada. Pero abolir la agencia no es suficiente. En el Congreso, arrastraré a agentes de ICE y a sus jefes en la administración ante comités para exigirles cuentas. Luego debemos procesarlos por lo que le han hecho a nuestro país.”

In Spanish on their site.

“Dismantle and abolish ICE”

“This rogue agency must be abolished, and that’s what Troy will fight to do in the Senate.”

“Co-sponsored a package of immigration reform to protect Maryland communities by: Prohibiting local law enforcement from entering into immigration enforcement agreements with federal authorities. Requiring law enforcement officers to clearly identify themselves and prohibiting the use of masks to conceal their identities during immigration enforcement. Protecting sensitive locations such as schools, libraries, and state facilities from immigration enforcement actions.”

“We need to end the cruelty and lawlessness of the Trump administration immediately. No more masked agents going door to door asking Americans for their papers, profiling people based on the color of their skin, and arresting and detaining hard-working people without warrants or cause.”

“Leverage the government funding process in the Senate to demand immediate reforms. Democrats must condition support for the Homeland Security Department budget on meaningful immigration reforms — including a ban on masks, warrant requirements for arrests, visible identification for officers, an end to racial profiling, reforms to ICE’s recruitment and training practices, and accountability for abuse and law-breaking.”

“Reining in ICE and restoring accountability, requiring body cameras, standard law enforcement uniforms with visible ID, and prohibiting masked agents.”

“We must hold ICE to the same standards as all law enforcement: comprehensive training (not just 47 days), body cameras for transparency, no hiding identities behind masks, and a focus on actual violent criminals – not law-abiding people in courthouses, schools, or churches. We can have both security and humanity.”

“Reform the system to hold ICE accountable — mandating body cameras, ending masked raids, increasing training standards, and taking on politicians who suspend our constitutional rights and endanger our communities.”

“Ban face masks and require that immigration agents wear body cameras and badges.”

“Cyril is standing with fellow mayors across the country calling on Congress to condition any new Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding on clear, enforceable guardrails: CBP and ICE agents must be clearly identifiable (no masks), body-worn cameras must be used, entries must require judicial warrants, and sensitive places like schools and hospitals must be protected. Law enforcement and constitutional rights are not competing goals.”

“I am very concerned by what we have seen from ICE. We cannot have federal law enforcement brutalizing citizens and intimidating immigrant communities in the streets. I have a daughter who is a police officer, and I believe ICE needs to be held to the same standards as our local law enforcement. ICE officers must follow due process and should be required to wear body cameras, display badges and leave their faces uncovered. ICE facilities must be humane, sanitary and safe. It is un-American to allow people to be denied access to basic rights while being held in our care.”

“Ban federal agents from wearing masks in the course of their duties”

“Require federal agents to identify themselves, their agency, their mission, and charges when detaining or arresting someone.”

“When Trump unleashed ICE in California, I led the way in the State Senate to force ICE agents to take off their masks, allow Californians to take ICE agents to court, and ban ICE agents from schools, churches, and hospitals.”

“Demand accountability and constitutional due process in immigration enforcement”

“Reining in Trump’s Deportation Forces: Trump is deporting U.S. citizens and others without a legal right to do so, violating court orders and denying people access to the legal system before whisking them away to foreign prisons. We should ban any President from violating anyone in America’s constitutional rights.”

“Return immigration enforcement to a public-safety-centered model with appropriate limits on use of force and respect for the rule of law and constitutional rights. Immigration enforcement plays an important role in public safety, but it has to include due process and a focus on violent offenders. It must focus on making communities safer, not creating and promoting chaos.”

“Due process is the foundation of the American justice system. Peggy will fight to rein in Donald Trump and Kristi Noem’s power to trample due process rights, detain and deport lawful residents–even citizens–and separate children from their parents.”

“Peggy would have voted against Donald Trump’s bill that stripped away due process from some immigrants and allows ICE to indiscriminately round up people and tear families apart.”

“We need a positive vision for how we fix our immigration system so that it actually helps working people, protects all of our basic constitutional rights, and includes accountability and oversight for immigration agents, just like any other public employee.”

“Restructuring, reform, and oversight. Enforcing the law cannot come at the expense of our constitutional rights or the safety of our neighbors and communities.”

“She has spoken out against abusive enforcement tactics and believes families deserve dignity, due process, and the ability to live without fear.”

“Troy supports an immigration system that respects due process and human rights, is accountable to the public, and focuses resources on genuine public-safety threats rather than indiscriminate raids and deportations.”

“I am very concerned by what we have seen from ICE. We cannot have federal law enforcement brutalizing citizens and intimidating immigrant communities in the streets.

ICE officers must follow due process and should be required to wear body cameras, display badges and leave their faces uncovered. ICE facilities must be humane, sanitary and safe. It is un-American to allow people to be denied access to basic rights while being held in our care.”

“Protect First Amendment rights by changing federal agent guidelines on the use of force guidelines to narrowly define what counts as impending or obstructing federal agents to”

“I will work to dismantle the current enforcement model that relies on fear and indiscriminate raids, replace it with a system rooted in constitutional protections, and refocus federal resources on genuine public safety threats. We can enforce our laws without abandoning our values. America should never operate a federal agency that undermines the Constitution it is sworn to uphold.”

“I’ve outlined a plan to stop ICE’s lawlessness in the short term while working to abolish and replace or rebuild ICE from the ground up in the longer term.”

ICE has become a lawless, unaccountable, poorly-run agency. Immigration enforcement authority must once again sit within an agency dedicated to a broader mission.”

“I believe in a safe, secure border and immigration enforcement–but under a new organizational structure that puts basic human dignity and deference to the rule of law first.”

“Restructuring, reform, and oversight. Enforcing the law cannot come at the expense of our constitutional rights or the safety of our neighbors and communities.”

“Fundamentally restructuring immigration enforcement agencies, including abolishing ICE”

“Reform ICE: ICE has been used to terrorize innocent and law abiding American citizens in cities across this country. We need new leadership, new training methods, and get back to the basics of targeting the worst of the worst.”

“As a member of Congress, Cyril will raise those standards at the federal level. He believes ICE must be overhauled. If professionalism and restraint are expected of local departments, federal agencies should meet the same—if not higher—standards. He will work to ensure ICE follows the law and has the proper training, oversight, and accountability to keep communities across NC-06 safe from excessive force.”

“We must Abolish ICE. Masked agents kidnapping innocent people off the streets and disappearing them into ICE facilities does not make us safer or protect American jobs. We need to hold the politicians who peddle these lies accountable. The agency is operating as a terror apparatus targeting immigrant families, asylum seekers, and long-rooted community members. We need to replace it with a humane, accountable immigration system focused on genuine public safety — not political theater.”

“Cut ICE funding immediately to pre-Trump levels, then Replace ICE with a federal immigration agency that Americans can trust and that obeys the Law and Constitution.”

“I will work to dismantle the current enforcement model that relies on fear and indiscriminate raids, replace it with a system rooted in constitutional protections, and refocus federal resources on genuine public safety threats. We can enforce our laws without abandoning our values. America should never operate a federal agency that undermines the Constitution it is sworn to uphold.”

“What doesn’t keep us secure is ICE and untrained federal agents terrorizing our communities and killing American citizens in broad daylight. In Congress, I will do everything in my power to overhaul ICE and hold agents accountable for illegal actions.”

“Leverage the government funding process in the Senate to demand immediate reforms. Democrats must condition support for the Homeland Security Department budget on meaningful immigration reforms — including a ban on masks, warrant requirements for arrests, visible identification for officers, an end to racial profiling, reforms to ICE’s recruitment and training practices, and accountability for abuse and law-breaking.”

“Reform ICE: ICE has been used to terrorize innocent and law abiding American citizens in cities across this country. We need new leadership, new training methods, and get back to the basics of targeting the worst of the worst.”

It is un-American to allow people to be denied access to basic rights while being held in our care.”

“The answer is not to defund law enforcement – it’s to fund law enforcement with intention. That includes ICE. That means supporting the officers who serve honorably while insisting on training, body cameras, clear identification, lawful conduct, and meaningful oversight.”

“we really need to make sure that we have a secure border… ICE agents need to be held accountable for the things that they’re doing. If they are deviating from the rule of law and the way that policy and procedure dictates that things should be done, so accountability, transparency, and of course, we need to make sure that they’re actually trained.”

“In Congress, JoAnna will work with both parties to strengthen border security at ports of entry, deporting violent criminals, holding cartels accountable, and ensuring that immigration enforcement is professional, properly trained, and consistent with the law.”

“We can both secure our border without allowing officers posing as masked vigilantes to erode due process and civil liberties. We need an interior agency with more rigorous training, increased oversight, and safer outcomes.”

“They have plenty of funding right now. They had $75 billion that they received in the reconciliation bill last year that they could use for all sorts of good standards and better training, and all the things that our local departments are doing to better equip our officers for the 21st Century, to focus on the community and to keep our country safe. So we need to spell that out in the bill.”

“Chris appreciates the job that our law enforcement officers do every day at the local, state, and federal levels and believes ICE should enforce our laws professionally. However it is clear that the federal government cannot continue to operate in a way that impedes local law enforcement, erodes trust, and puts communities at risk.”

“Holding the Trump Administration Accountable: In Congress, I will hold Trump and ICE accountable for their actions. Trump's ICE agents should not be wearing masks, taking people in unmarked cars, or stopping people based on their skin color, and they should be wearing body cameras, required to use judicial orders, and held accountable when they break the law. Americans deserve strong standards for all law enforcement.”

“ICE must be completely overhauled. Agents must adhere to the same basic standards we demand from our local police departments here in New Hampshire. This includes requiring body cameras, banning masks, stopping warrantless searches and ending ICE raids in schools, churches and hospitals. And there will be no ICE warehouses anywhere in New Hampshire.”

“Immigration is a cornerstone of our national identity. The men and women who leave everything behind to seek a better life here in America embody the spirit of courage and resilience that our founders once had. But instead of honoring that, politicians have used them as pawns and scapegoats to distract from their policies that have failed everyday people. Masked agents kidnapping innocent people off the streets and disappearing them into ICE facilities does not make us safer or protect American jobs. We need to hold the politicians who peddle these lies accountable and put an end to these ICE raids. It’s time to abolish ICE and to build an immigration system grounded in dignity and justice by creating accessible pathways to citizenship, ending inhumane detention practices, and rejecting cruel political stunts that dehumanize families.

“When masked agents began disappearing people off the streets, Scott passed first-in-the-nation legislation to make it illegal for ICE to wear masks, and he is now working to end impunity for ICE by allowing you to sue them when they violate your rights — it’s currently nearly impossible to sue them under federal law.”

“We need to end the cruelty and lawlessness of the Trump administration immediately. No more masked agents going door to door asking Americans for their papers, profiling people based on the color of their skin, and arresting and detaining hard-working people without warrants or cause.”

“Leverage the government funding process in the Senate to demand immediate reforms. Democrats must condition support for the Homeland Security Department budget on meaningful immigration reforms — including a ban on masks, warrant requirements for arrests, visible identification for officers, an end to racial profiling, reforms to ICE’s recruitment and training practices, and accountability for abuse and law-breaking.”

“We must end racial profiling and ensure immigration enforcement upholds our Constitution and our values.”

“Holding the Trump Administration Accountable: In Congress, I will hold Trump and ICE accountable for their actions. Trump's ICE agents should not be wearing masks, taking people in unmarked cars, or stopping people based on their skin color, and they should be wearing body cameras, required to use judicial orders, and held accountable when they break the law. Americans deserve strong standards for all law enforcement.”

“The federal government laid this chaos and disruption on Minnesotans’ doorstep. Kristi Noem, Greg Bovino, and everyone involved in Operation Metro Surge must be held accountable for violating the law and due process. The federal government must repair and restore what it’s taken from Minnesota.”

“We will build the political power to replace our current system with one that centers humanity and dignity of all people, and that invests in safe, efficient pathways to full citizenship. We will stand with our immigrant neighbors and ensure that those targeted by ICE receive reparative justice.”

“Beyond abolishing and dismantling ICE, we must fight for comprehensive immigration reform that establishes efficient, humane pathways to citizenship and guarantees legal status for the millions of people who already live and work here. We must also reckon with the well-documented harm inflicted by DHS and ICE over the past 13 years, and provide reparative justice, including financial and programmatic support, to individuals who have been unjustly and unlawfully targeted.”

“Invest in wraparound legal and social support for those who have experienced violence, mistreatment, or have been separated from their families at the hands of ICE.”

“In America, we don’t send masked men to kidnap people off the street and throw them into unmarked cars. It’s bullshit and un-American.”

“Fight against an authoritarian federal government that is abducting our neighbors.”

“From preventing evictions in Brooklyn, to winning groundbreaking protections for fast-food workers and freelancers in the City Council, to taking on the Adams administration as Comptroller, to being arrested by federal agents while defending immigrants from ICE, Brad has spent his career taking on bullies and showing up for New Yorkers.”

“Standing up to Trump and ICE”

“In June 2025, Brad was handcuffed and detained by masked federal agents at 26 Federal Plaza while escorting an asylum seeker out of immigration court. He has continued to accompany immigrants to their court dates alongside fellow elected officials, clergy, and community members, because no New Yorker should have to face Trump's deportation machine alone. For Brad, defending our immigrant neighbors isn't a slogan — it's something you do with your body, in the building, when it counts.”

“Meanwhile, masked federal agents were abducting legal residents off of American streets.”

“We must fix our broken system You’ve seen the videos. Unidentified masked men kidnapping innocent mothers selling fruit, or ripping children away from their parents. The current policies of blanket detention and deportation are unconstitutional and un-American. As the son of immigrants from Mexico, this is personal to me. We need a working system that protects our communities while providing a path to citizenship so our undocumented neighbors, friends and coworkers aren’t forced to live in the shadows.”

“In Congress, Robert will build stronger partnerships with local and regional elected officials and grassroots organizations across our city to confront Trump’s attacks on D.C., protect Washingtonians from ICE and unaccountable federal agents, safeguard our local budget, and defend our right to govern ourselves.”
