ICE Deports Criminal Illegal Immigrant Despite Minnesota Pardon
DHS said the 2006 conviction and removal order still made Vang deportable after Minnesota officials tried to erase his record.
- On Monday, ICE deported Tou Lue Vang, a convicted sex offender, despite a June 10 pardon from the Minnesota Board of Pardons intended to prevent his removal.
- Gov. Tim Walz and the Minnesota Board of Pardons approved the pardon this spring, with Walz arguing no public safety benefit existed in deporting a resident creating job growth in Minnesota.

- This week, Secretary of State Marco Rubio revoked Vang's legal status, prompting federal agents to take him into custody and execute the removal order immediately.
- The case exposes a clash between Trump Administration immigration enforcement and local sanctuary policies, with Rubio pledging to continue removing foreign criminals from the United States.
