The Trump administration will draw down 700 federal law enforcement officers from Minnesota “effective immediately,” border czar Tom Homan said Wednesday.
After that partial withdrawal, around 2,000 federal agents will remain in the state — a roughly 25% reduction — with most concentrated in the Twin Cities area encompassing Minneapolis and St. Paul, Homan said at a press conference.
Homan announced the pullback after touting “unprecedented cooperation” between the federal government and state and local entities.
That cooperation boosts efficiency, requiring fewer officers to be sent into communities “to assume custody of a criminal alien target” and freeing up resources, Homan said.
“More officers taking custody of criminal aliens directly from the jails, means less officers on the street doing criminal operations,” he said. “This is smart law enforcement, not less law enforcement.”
