As Democrats continue their war on Immigration and Customs Enforcement, with calls to abolish the agency, the Trump administration is standing strong behind the men and women who work there.
During a speech at ICE headquarters in Washington DC Friday, Vice President Mike Pence fully backed the agency and explained why it is crucial to the safety of the country.
The calls to abolish @ICEgov are not just outrageous - they're irresponsible. Abolishing ICE would mean more illegal immigration, more violent crime, more vicious gangs, more drugs, and more human trafficking. #IStandWithICE pic.twitter.com/MWTF4x8PG4

The heroes of @ICEgov are being attacked and demonized for the work that they do at an unprecedented rate. The threats against ICE officers and their families must stop, and they must stop now. #IStandWithICE pic.twitter.com/mNgxEymJ6O

In 2017, @ICEgov made 4,818 gang arrests, and they took from the streets 796 members of the MS-13 gang. Our communities are safer as a result. #IStandWithICE pic.twitter.com/hqa9H5oV0v

In this @WhiteHouse we are with you 100%. As @POTUS said last night, we will always stand proudly with the brave heroes of @ICEgov and our border patrol. #IStandWithICE pic.twitter.com/aEyitwl3Ml

Calls to abolish ICE are not just outrageous – they are irresponsible. Abolishing ICE would mean more illegal immigration… Abolishing ICE would mean more violent crime… Abolishing ICE would mean more vicious gangs like MS-13. #IStandWithICE

Under @POTUS Donald Trump, we will NEVER abolish ICE. #IStandWithICE

President Trump again called on Congress to fix broken immigration law yesterday, saying the current system is "insane."
Congress - FIX OUR INSANE IMMIGRATION LAWS NOW!
