Newly released polling indicates that a clear majority of Americans are supportive of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and believe they should be left unobstructed.
Fifty-seven percent of Americans believe that ICE agents “should be able to do their job without being impeded or harassed,” according to polling conducted by Plymouth Union Public Research. The survey, which gauged public sentiment on President Donald Trump’s immigration enforcement agenda and the conduct of deportation officers, found that most Americans generally want to see illegal immigration addressed.
“Voters broadly see illegal immigration as a serious issue that President Trump is properly addressing,” the survey concluded. “There is clear openness for enforcement measures and general approval of the current approach, especially efforts to disrupt cartels and hold foreign actors accountable.”

Respondents strongly believed border enforcement to be a priority, with 74% of those surveyed stating that fighting illegal immigration is “an important issue” for both President Donald Trump and Congress to fix, according to the survey.
