A stunning new poll from Pew Research revealed a major partisan divide surrounding the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency Tuesday, with the survey showing a vast majority of Democrats view the department “unfavorably.”
The public attitude towards the agency was split evenly between the GOP and liberal voters, with 72% of Republicans viewing ICE favorably compared with 72% of Democrats who viewed ICE “unfavorably.”
The poll was conducted between July 11 and July 15th among 1,007 adults through telephone interviews.
The stark divide highlights the growing split between voters regarding immigration as multiple liberal politicians -including former President Barack Obama and NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio- called for the outright abolishment of ICE; saying the agency was beyond “broken.”
