During congressional hearings, Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons disclosed that ICE opened 37 use‑of‑force misconduct investigations in the past year (18 closed, 19 pending), acknowledged shortened academy training and limited body‑camera deployment, and declined to comment on ongoing probes into the Minneapolis killings of Renée Good and Alex Pretti. Lyons refused Democratic calls to resign, defended the agency’s actions and committed to releasing body‑cam footage where available, as the incidents have intensified a partisan standoff over DHS funding and statutory ICE reforms (body cameras, mask bans, visible IDs and warrant rules).
