Nonprofit launches to restore ICE immigration enforcement, counter left-wing ‘Abolish’ movement

Adam Shaw | Fox News

A new nonprofit launching Monday intends to push back against the “Abolish ICE” movement and what it says is the “vilification” of Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) mission and its agents in recent years – while pushing for stricter interior immigration enforcement and the end of “sanctuary” cities.

The National Immigration Center for Enforcement – or NICE – intends to advocate for the embattled agency which, after receiving a boost under the Trump administration, has seen its mission narrow significantly under President Biden amid continual attacks from activists who want to scrap the agency altogether.

The Biden Department of Homeland Security sought to slap a moratorium on all deportations but was blocked by a court order. It has since narrowed ICE’s enforcement scope, ordering agents to focus on public safety threats, recent border crossers and national security threats. That move has also been blocked by a court challenge.
