OH-09: ICE deputy director leaving agency to run for Congress in Ohio

Madison Sheahan, the deputy director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), is resigning from the agency to run for Congress in Ohio.

In a video launch on Thursday, Sheahan pitched herself as a pro-Trump conservative, touting her work on the president’s immigration crackdown

“In just one year, we’ve made history, recruiting 12,000 new ICE officers and agents, and deporting over 2.5 million illegal aliens. Ohio neighborhoods are safer thanks to President Trump and ICE,” Sheahan said.

“At ICE, I returned security to our communities. I’m ready to take that same mindset to Congress,” she said. She also shared her letter of resignation on the social platform X.
