The White House has pulled its nomination of a former state trooper to head U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), leaving the agency—central to the previous administration’s immigration policies—without a confirmed leader. The move delays leadership at an agency responsible for enforcing immigration laws and deportations, raising questions about operational stability. With no immediate replacement named, ICE’s future direction remains uncertain. The decision follows ongoing Senate deliberations over the nomination.
The White House says it is withdrawing its nomination of Lance Schroyer, a former Oklahoma state trooper, to lead ICE, ensuring that an agency at the forefront of President Trump's domestic agenda will remain without a Senate-confirmed leader for at least a while longer.
