Abdul El-Sayed: We Don’t Need ICE, ‘Fire All the People in It’

‘So the notion that we can’t protect our southern border or we can’t enforce immigration policy without ICE is just not true’

TRANSCRIPT:

EL-SAYED: “ICE as a way of demonizing immigration itself. ICE itself is — has become a rogue agency based on a premise that is inconsistent with both the Constitution and the ideals of our country. We don’t need it. In fact, we didn’t have it before 2002. America is a lot older than 2002. So, the notion that we can’t protect our southern border, or we can’t enforce immigration policy without ICE, is just not true. You get rid of the agency, you fire all the people in it, and then you ask yourself, what would you want to build that actually achieved the goals that we have?”
