Colorado congressional Democrats recently toured the Aurora Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention facility, where they met with detained activist Jeanette Vizguerra. Following the visit, Illinois Democratic Representative Delia Ramirez publicly labeled ICE a "terrorist organization," calling for the agency to be defunded and abolished. Ramirez, a first-generation American whose parents are undocumented immigrants from Guatemala, has stated that ICE's tactics do not enhance safety but instead enable impersonators to harass and abuse women. Her remarks have drawn strong criticism from Republican figures and ICE representatives, who accuse her of inciting violence against ICE officers, noting a rise in assaults on the agency's personnel. ICE responded to the Colorado delegation's visit by accusing the lawmakers of demanding special treatment and fabricating falsehoods. Ramirez has emphasized continued efforts with her Democratic colleagues to hold ICE accountable and end what she describes as the agency's terror tactics. The controversy has sparked a broader debate over immigration enforcement and the role of ICE in the United States.
