US President Donald Trump has expressed support for a proposal to rename Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to National Immigration and Customs Enforcement (NICE), sparking debate over immigration enforcement.
Trump shared a post on Truth Social suggesting the name change, which was met with mixed reactions from lawmakers and activists.
ICE has faced criticism over its handling of immigration cases, with some Democrats calling for its abolition and others pushing for reforms.
The agency is also facing scrutiny over its treatment of detainees, with reports of abuses in detention facilities and breaches of state sanctuary laws.
Activists have accused ICE of targeting at-risk individuals and intensifying enforcement through militarized units, leading to calls for greater oversight and accountability.
