Trump and his administration claim that ICE officers face tremendous danger while they're on patrol. However, the data tells an entirely different story.
How dangerous is it really to work for ICE?

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.
