          “Look, we can’t just get rid of ICE altogether, they’re vital to protecting our democracy. But what we can do is vote for a better ICE, one that is better trained, and better equipped to handle the dire situation the US as a country is facing today. Is it a perfect solution? No. But it’s the best decision we have available to us and I’m happy to support even a minuscule change for the better!
