President Donald Trump has nominated Lance Schroyer, a former Oklahoma police officer, to lead the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency. Schroyer comes with 29 years of law enforcement experience and has been involved in overseeing ICE partnerships, currently serving as an advisor to the Department of Homeland Security. His appointment marks the first Senate-confirmed directorship for ICE since 2017.
Schroyer’s nomination follows the resignation of Todd Lyons in May, which occurred shortly after the departure of former Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen. The choice has generated attention, as Schroyer is positioned as a tough law enforcement figure, having been described as a "hunter of the worst criminals." His appointment will require Senate confirmation before he can officially assume the role.
