Congress first voted on abolishing ICE back in 2018.
Rep. Mark Pocan introduced the 'Abolish ICE Act' in 2018. When Republicans forced a floor vote, most Democrats voted 'present' rather than yes — exposing deep party divisions over ICE that fuel debates like this one today.
ICE employs over 20,000 officers across 400+ offices worldwide.
Created in 2003 under the Dept. of Homeland Security, ICE operates in all 50 states and 50+ countries. Its Enforcement and Removal Operations division carries out arrests and deportations — the unit at the center of the Austin controversy.
ICE's annual budget tops $9 billion — larger than the FBI's.
ICE's FY2024 budget was ~$9.1B, funding 20,000+ agents and staff nationwide. Its Enforcement & Removal Operations division alone accounts for roughly $5.5B — more than many entire federal agencies.
