President Donald Trump announced Saturday that he’s nominating Lance Schroyer, a longtime law enforcement officer from Oklahoma, to be his nominee for Immigration and Customs Enforcement director.
In his announcement, Trump touted Schroyer’s 29 years of service as a law enforcement officer in Oklahoma and said Schroyer will enforce the administration’s crackdown on undocumented immigrants.
“He is a PATRIOT with real operational experience, and proven leader with DECADES of experience locking up the worst of the worst,” Trump said in a social media post.
Schroyer, who previously served as an Oklahoma State Trooper and a U.S. Marine, currently serves as a senior advisor to the Secretary of Homeland Security.
David Venturella has been the acting ICE director since he took over for Todd Lyons, who stepped down from the role on May 31.
