Trump says he will nominate Lance Schroyer as ICE director
Schroyer’s 29 years in Oklahoma law enforcement and work on 287(g) partnerships helped win Trump’s backing for the ICE post, officials said.
- On Saturday, President Donald Trump announced the nomination of former Oklahoma State Trooper Lance Schroyer as the new ICE Director. Schroyer, a United States Marine, brings over 29 years of law enforcement experience to the role.
- The nomination follows former ICE Director Todd Lyons's resignation at the end of May. Trump aims to bolster his administration's immigration agenda by installing a leader with significant operational law enforcement experience.
- Schroyer previously spearheaded 287g programs that linked local policing to federal immigration authorities. Supporters say this experience provides him direct familiarity with enforcement operations and coordination between state and federal agencies.
- Trump insisted the Senate "IMMEDIATELY" confirm Schroyer, while DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin praised the nominee's ability to help deliver on the administration's mandate to "target, arrest, and deport illegal aliens."
- The Senate is expected to examine Schroyer's record on federal immigration policy as the confirmation process renews debates over ICE's role in United States enforcement strategy and detention practices.
