Minnesota winds down anti-immigration operation
World
A federal operation targeting illegal immigration in the state of Minnesota is nearing completion. The White House said the decision followed increased cooperation between local authorities and federal agencies.
Tom Homan, the border control coordinator in President Donald Trump’s administration, said the operation is being concluded with the president’s approval. According to him, local officials have recently stepped up cooperation with federal immigration services, reducing illegal migration and shifting Minnesota away from its “sanctuary state” status.
Homan added that he will remain in the state for a short period to oversee the drawdown and secure the results of the operation.
In January 2026, two U.S. citizens were shot dead by federal officers during raids and related protests in Minnesota, an incident that sparked significant public reaction.
Federal authorities say immigration enforcement will continue in the state through regular procedures once the operation is fully completed.
