Immigration attorney Sekou Clarke said under DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, 170 US citizens were detained by ICE and around eight to ten US citizens were actually removed. Clarke said that while her stint felt like chaos, Markwayne Mullin's time in the DHS will begin with an overhaul of the enforcement of ICE. They are going to restrategize and that may become more organized, detailed, and targeted approach. "It does not mean there will be less or more enforcement," the immigration attorney said, adding that Green Card holders must remain careful.
Under a new secretary, it's a possibility that there will be broader priorities for the department now, including a shift in the funding of the DHS.
