"Abolishing" ICE isn't even enough, by the way.
Abolishment implies cutting the cord and then just wiping our hands clean. We need to punish these fuckers - at every level - with such intensity that there is no opportunity for a personal paramilitary organization like this to ever rise again.

I am introducing the Quick Recognition (QR) Act, which requires ICE and CBP officers to wear uniforms featuring QR codes. When scanned, the code would generate a digital ID displaying the officer’s name, badge number, and law enforcement agency.
ICE should be unmasked both physically and digitally.
