The Economist-YouGov poll published Tuesday found that 46 percent of Americans support abolishing the agency in the wake of ICE agent Jonathan Ross shooting and killing Renee Good.
Another 43 percent of respondents said they oppose getting rid of the agency, while another 12 percent said they were “not sure.”

The flip is a remarkable turnaround from September 2024, when only 19 percent of Americans supported abolishing ICE, according to Civiqs. Since President Donald Trump took office in January 2025, that number skyrocketed, but had not overtaken the number of Americans opposed to ICE’s abolition until Good’s killing.

Meanwhile, 71 percent said local law enforcement should be involved in investigating the incident.
