'More ICE than ever' coming to NYC, Homan says

Source: USA Today

Updated June 9, 2026, 12:07 p.m. ET


Tom Homan, the White House's border czar, warned that he's deploying more Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to New York after the state's latest sweeping legislation limiting the agency's actions.

In an interview June 8 on "Fox & Friends," Homan said he plans to send "more ICE agents (than) you've ever seen in New York City" after New York Gov. Kathy Hochul signed legislation late in May enacting protections against ICE enforcement actions. As part of her fiscal year 2027 enacted budget, Hochul passed laws that, in part, bar federal officers from using state and local law enforcement facilities for civil immigration actions.

Homan said that when he and Hochul met a few months ago, they discussed allowing federal officers to make arrests at local jails. "She signed the legislation anyways. So I made her a promise: You will see more ICE agents (than) you've ever seen in New York City. And it's coming," he said.

Homan also said he has "reviewed an operational plan" for an ICE surge in New York but did not specify when it would take place. "I am not going to tell you exactly when it's going to happen, but it's coming. I am keeping my promise," he said. "We're going to send more ICE agents to New York because you took away the efficiencies of safe arrests in county jails."

against Democratic mayors and cities for their rejection of the senseless violence and cruelty of Trumps policies towards immigrant communities. There is no need for any of these gestapo tactics.
The cruelty is the point, ALWAYS.
As their “good book” says, By their acts, you will know them.

more ICE agents will be arrested than Homan has ever seen. I wonder if he knows that arrests under State law can't be pardoned by [Redacted].
