US migration policy: Trump surprisingly withdraws top personnel from ICE authority
It's a setback for Trump. He had wanted a new head for the controversial immigration agency ICE, which is notorious for its raids. But that probably won't happen now.
US President Donald Trump has withdrawn his nomination for the head of the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency. The White House announced that the nomination of Lance Schroyer, a former Oklahoma state police officer, had been withdrawn, but did not give a reason. Schroyer, a former Marine, was nominated in June and described by Trump as a "patriot", but US media reported that he lacked extensive experience in immigration.
The withdrawal leaves the agency, a key part of Trump's second term immigration policy, without a leader.
