Democrats embrace socialist calls to abolish ICE

TL;DR

  • The Democratic National Committee's Resolutions Committee approved a resolution calling for the abolition of ICE.
  • This resolution was introduced by a member of the New Orleans Democratic Socialists of America (DSA).
  • The DSA's position is that ICE should be abolished and all undocumented immigrants should be granted amnesty and citizenship.
  • Past DNC resolutions focused on reforming or replacing ICE, but the DSA's influence has pushed for a full embrace of open borders.
  • An amendment to change 'abolishing' to 'completely restructuring' was withdrawn, and the resolution passed 25-12.
  • Over a dozen Democratic-run states have passed laws forbidding local law enforcement from participating in ICE's 287(g) program.
  • The article criticizes the Democratic stance, arguing that it hinders effective immigration enforcement and is a step towards open borders, citing Senator Mark Warner's comments as an example of advocating for 'a path towards legality' instead of deportation.
  • The article concludes that border security without interior enforcement is meaningless and that voters should heed the DNC's resolution as a clear indication of the party's direction.
