The acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Ron Vitiello, has resigned amid an agency-wide restructuring of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
Vitiello had originally been nominated to take over the post permanently, but his nomination was abruptly pulled last week by President Trump, who said he wanted to go in a “tougher” direction.
Outgoing Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen announced the news of Vitiello’s departure on Wednesday, praising his “knowledge and expertise as a seasoned law enforcement professional.”
