Some
law
schools
and
law
students
have
been
doing
their
part
to
push
back
against
ICE.
The
University
of
Maine’s
law
school
dean
spread
info
on
an
anti-ICE
hotline
to
the
community
and
students
at
Georgetown
and
George
Washington
tried
their
best
to
keep
ICE
from
attending
their
virtual
job
fair.
But
it
can
be
hard
to
tell
if
these
students
are
just
members
of
a
vocal
minority
when
it
comes
to
resisting
ICE
or
part
of
a
larger
trend.
Thankfully,
a
recent
Marquette
University
Law
School
national
survey
has
some
results
that
should
answer
that
question.
From
Fox:
A
new
Marquette
University
Law
School
poll
found
60%
of
adults
nationwide
disapprove
of
the
way
U.S.
Immigration
and
Customs
Enforcement,
known
as
ICE,
is
handling
its
job.The
poll
was
conducted
after
the
shooting
in
Minneapolis
of
Renee
Good.
Most
interviews
were
completed
before
the
shooting
of
Alex
Pretti
on
Jan.
24,
2026.
Over
half!
Hard
data
really
does
make
the
go-to
“the
silent
majority
approves
of
this
because
some
mandate
given
to
us
back
in
2024”
argument
less
credible.
There’s
a
strong
divide
on
party
lines
—
a
whopping
80%
of
Republicans
approve
of
what
ICE
is
doing
according
to
the
poll
—
but
things
may
change
as
the
operation
scales
up.
The
party
has
done
a
phenomenal
job
of
practicing
cognitive
dissonance
whenever
facts
confront
their
world
view,
but
public
attacks
against
the
Second
Amendment
so
ICE
can
“do
the
jobs”
they
lack
jurisdiction
to
do
has
been
a
hard
selling
point
for
many.
And
if
gun
ownership
isn’t
your
line
in
the
sand,
maybe
the
forecast
of
ICE
being
used
to
do
widespread
voter
intimidation
is:
To
the
60%
of
adults
who
are
unhappy
with
ICE,
welcome
to
the
club.
As
for
the
other
40%,
here’s
one
last
push:
