Everyone thinking "just go across state lines and buy" needs to know it won't be just that easy. From what I can find, 17 states currently has legislation passed that bans new ICE's in 2035. Nine states currently has legislation in the states House or Senate that bans new ICE's in 2035. Two states has passed legislation that bans ICE's but has not determined a year yet. That's 28 states that currently has banned or is getting ready to ban new ICE's and more are being added to the list every year. By the time the ban goes into effect, it won't be as simple as "go across the state line". It'll be more like "drive 5-6 states away".
I agree with Martin above that the 2035 timeline is unrealistic and will eventually be pushed back but it is still an issue.
Though in positive news North Carolina recently passed an amendment that strictly prohibits the state from ever banning the sale of new ICE's and that for such a ban to go in place, it must come from the federal level.
