Democrats Urged to ‘Play Hardball’ on ICE

A new polling memo urges Senate Democrats to “play hardball” ahead of a looming partial government shutdown and use their “leverage to reform ICE,” Politico reports.

The polling found that 58% of likely midterm voters want ICE to be reined in. More voters prefer reforming ICE than the number who prefer eliminating the agency entirely by 30% to 19%.
