Here’s the latest I can share based on available public reports.
- Todd Lyons, who had been serving as acting director of ICE, announced he would resign and step down from the agency, with his final day reported as May 31, 2026. This was confirmed by DHS officials and widely covered in late April 2026 news cycles.[2][3][9]
- Coverage highlights that Lyons’ departure follows scrutiny over immigration enforcement actions and a period of high-profile leadership changes within ICE during the Trump administration’s broader immigration agenda.[3][2]
- Public reporting around the time of resignation noted praise from officials about his leadership and his stated reason for stepping down as spending more time with his family.[2][3]
If you’d like, I can pull more sources or provide a brief timeline of Lyons’ tenure and the surrounding ICE leadership changes.
