The acting head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Todd Lyons, will leave his post at the agency charged with enforcing U.S. President Donald Trump’s anti-immigrant crackdown in May, the Homeland Security Secretary announced Thursday (April 16, 2026).

Todd Lyons “has been a great leader of ICE,” said Markwayne Mullin in a statement, adding that his last day would be May 31 and wishing him luck in his “next opportunity in the private sector.”
