Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Pearson called for the dismantling of United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), labeling it a "domestic terrorist organization" and "a tool of white supremacy."At a January 20, 2026, Tennessee Progressive Caucus press conference aimed at limiting ICE's power in the state, Pearson said, "We are in that moment now, in this country and in the state of Tennessee. We have to stand up against this dictator [Donald Trump]. We have to stand up against these authoritarians and people who are misusing [and] abusing their power against folks in our community, because if any of these people who claim to be Christian actually read the Bible, they would know that you have a responsibility to protect the foreigner. They would have read that you have to care for and love your neighbor. That's what we're doing."https://youtu.be/QjTaL1WLtzU?si=YyAhcgFKNh5lZ6tI
