Humane Immigration Enforcement System Act

Or the abolish ICE Act. That vote will define some campaigns.
House GOP leaders plan to bring a Democratic measure calling for the abolishment of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to the House floor, hoping to force Democrats into a difficult vote.
“President Trump’s blanket directive to round up and target all undocumented immigrants underscores the unchecked power which ICE has used to terrorize our communities,” Pocan said in a statement. “From conducting raids at garden centers and meatpacking plants to targeting families outside churches and schools, the president is using ICE as a mass-deportation force to rip apart the moral fabric of our nation.” LINK

Isn’t that the point?

Immigration is the responsibility of the federal government, and this is the federal agency tasked with handling it. Who is supposed to be checking them?
Can enforcement of the law really be considered “terrorism”?

Nah, Liberals did this long ago.

So they aren't going to vote for their very own legislation that they put forth.
Dems say they'll vote no on their 'Abolish ICE' legislation
A group of Democrats who introduced legislation to abolish U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) said they will vote against the measure if GOP leadership follows through with their vow to bring it to the House floor.
Reps. Mark Pocan (D-Wis.), Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) and Adriano Espaillat (D-N.Y.) released a statement Thursday accusing GOP leaders of exploiting the legislation for political gain after leadership confirmed it planned to hold a vote.
While the Democratic lawmakers said they plan to vote against their own measure – which would create a commission to examine ICE’s responsibilities and then recommend transferring them to other agencies – they said they welcome the opportunity for debate.
"We look forward to the day that we have meaningful action on the issues covered by our bill." LINK

They have a habit of this dont they, Mueller filing charges against the Russian company and then say oops, they showed up.
They bet on the fact the bill would be shelved and they could howl at the moon, oops.
