Trump Reverses ICE Pause on Vehicle Stops

Thursday, July 16, 2026 · 10 sources

President Trump reversed a pause on vehicle stops by ICE agents after a meeting with advisers at the White House. The pause was initially put in place due to two fatal shootings involving ICE agents in the past two weeks.

Late Tuesday, President Trump met with advisers at the White House to discuss the Department of Homeland Security's decision to pause certain vehicle stops by ICE agents. The decision to pause was made after two fatal shootings involving ICE agents in the past two weeks. However, by Wednesday morning, Trump had sent a post reversing the pause, leaving DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin and border czar Tom Homan to explain the decision.

The reversal of the pause has sparked debate within the administration over how to balance public pressure to stop violence with Trump's desire for tough enforcement and more deportations. The recent shootings have also highlighted the contrast between Mullin's handling of such incidents and that of his predecessor, Kristi Noem. Mullin has been in frequent contact with senators and has avoided responding with the same fervor as Noem to use-of-force incidents involving ICE or Customs and Border Patrol agents.

The pause on vehicle stops was initially put in place after a plea from Maine Sen. Susan Collins, following the shooting of Colombian national Joan Sebastian Guerrero in Maine. The recent shootings have also come shortly after ICE conducted a surge in immigration arrests, reaching 2,000 per day. Use-of-force incidents have increased during such surges in places like Chicago and Minneapolis.
