New Ipsos Poll Shows Majority of Public Disapproves of Trump Immigration Policy, ICE Actions

Описание: Cliff Young, president of US public affairs at Ipsos, said that the Trump administration is readjusting to public opinion pushback on its immigration policy after two shootings by ICE agents in Minneapolis. Young said that the American public puts an emphasis on fundamental fairness and that the videos from Minneapolis did not seem fair to Americans.

The Trump administration is seeking to scale down the number of federal officers in Minneapolis after the killing of two US citizens during immigration raids sparked a nationwide uproar and weeks of protests.
Tom Homan, the administration’s “border czar,” said Thursday at a press conference in Minneapolis that officials from Customs and Border Protection and Immigration and Customs Enforcement are working on a “draw down plan” that hinges on cooperation from local, state and federal officials.
“When we have these agreements, it takes less law enforcement agents to do the job,” he told reporters. “They’re here to help us, and the draw down will come soon.”
Separately, Republican Senator Susan Collins of Maine announced early Thursday that ICE had stopped “enhanced operations” in her state, which like Minnesota has a sizable Somali community. 
“There are currently no ongoing or planned large-scale ICE operations here,” Collins said. 
President Donald Trump in remarks later Thursday, praised Homan, saying he doing a “great” job.
“We’ll do whatever we can to keep our country safe,” Trump told reporters. But when asked if he was pulling back from Minnesota, the president responded “No, not at all.”
