Thomas Homan, the acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, will retire from his senior post within the Department of Homeland Security in June, two senior ICE officials confirmed Monday afternoon.

“He decided earlier this year. He informed DHS leadership at the end of January. They asked for him to stay on to assist with the transition,” an ICE spokesperson told the Washington Examiner by phone.
