With that, and success that has been made arresting public safety threats and other priorities since this surge operation began, as well as the unprecedented levels of coordination we have obtained from state officials and local law enforcement, I have proposed, and President Trump has concurred, that this surge operation conclude.

Through targeted enforcement operations based on reasonable suspicion and prioritizing safety and security, ICE will continue to identify, arrest, and remove illegal aliens that pose a risk to public safety, like we've done for years.

And as a result of the need for less law enforcement officers to do this work in a safer environment, I have announced effective immediately.

We will draw down 700 people effective today.

700 law enforcement personnel.

We have also fully integrated CBP personnel into the ICRO team structure under one unified chain of command.

not two chains of command, there'd be one chain of command here.

Any large enforcement operation I've ever been involved with, there's one chain of command and that's where we're moving forward.

During my press conference last week, I announced that moving forward, ICE will be conducting targeted immigration enforcement operations, like ICE has traditionally done for decades, based on reasonable suspicion to question and detain.

ICE will conduct these operations and transnational criminal organization investigations with a focus on national security and public safety.

I want to be clear.

Just because you prioritize public safety threats don't mean we forget about everybody else.

We will continue to enforce the immigration laws in this country.

Right around 2,000.

We currently have an unprecedented number of counties communicating with us now.
