Todd Lyons, the acting head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), will leave his role at the end of May, according to Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin. Lyons will be leaving for a new role in the private sector. The Senate has not confirmed a director for ICE since 2017, resulting in almost a decade's worth of acting leaders at the agency. It is unclear who will replace Lyons. This is Mullin's first major decision since replacing Kristi Noem at the Department of Homeland Security. The resignation comes amid an ongoing shutdown at DHS, which has now been stretched for over two months.
