A New Face at the Helm: ICE Seeks Stability with Schroyer Nomination The US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is poised to welcome a new leader, with the nomination of a replacement for the agency's top spot. The move comes in the wake of former director Todd Lyons' resignation at the end of May, which sparked a period of uncertainty within the agency. David Venturella, a seasoned executive with ties to the private prison industry, has been holding down the fort as acting head of ICE, but the agency is now looking to install a more permanent and stable leadership figure. As the nation continues to grapple with complex immigration issues, the appointment of Schroyer is being closely watched by advocates and lawmakers alike.
