Why ICE and Border Patrol Agents Don't Quit in Protest

Original: Why Immigration Agents Don’t Quit in Protest How a culture of dehumanization and denial keeps ICE and Border Patrol pers

A New Yorker article examines why ICE and Border Patrol personnel rarely resign or protest over enforcement practices, arguing that a workplace culture of dehumanization and denial keeps agents committed. The piece describes agents as operating 'at war with an enemy that does not fight back,' framing internal dissent as suppressed by institutional norms rather than individual conviction.

Why now: Ongoing public debate over immigration enforcement is prompting scrutiny of the culture inside ICE and Border Patrol.
