State-Level - Governor:

 

State level candidates can, and should, take actions to limit ICE. However, they do not have the power to defund the agency. I’ll include gubernatorial candidates who call for ICE abolition, but due to constraints on my time and attention, I can’t maintain a list of state legislative candidates who support abolishing ICE.

Clarification Re: PA-05

 

At a candidate forum, Gabby Richards (who the organizers tell me was the field director for MGS sent as a surrogate) held up the “Yes” sign indicating support for defunding ICE (see 25:30 here. Richards is wearing a black shirt, the third from the right, between Lunkenheimer and Sheehan). I reported that all the candidates at the forum had indicated support for defunding ICE, which the video shows.

 

When reached for confirmation, Scanlon responded that,

 

"I support legislation to defund private detention centers that warehouse immigrants, including children, in inhumane conditions and deny access to basic services. Instead, we must improve conditions for those subject to detention.

 

A blanket defunding of ICE is not the best solution to immigration issues. Many immigrants have been unable to obtain documented status in a timely fashion because ICE and other government agencies lack the resources to screen and process citizenship and green card applications in a timely manner. Ending humanitarian abuses is a goal that doesn't necessarily involve defunding ICE as a whole but rather re-prioritizing its activities."

 

That is not support for defunding ICE, so Scanlon is not on this list. I have asked the campaign to clarify whether Richards was 1) not speaking on behalf of the campaign or 2) did not accurately reflect the campaign’s position. They have not yet responded.
