ICE sees highest staff departures
During 2025 and the first half of 2026, ICE experienced a significant increase in both staffing and turnover, hiring nearly 12,000 agents under the Trump administration's funding surge. However, over 2,900 agents left in the first half of 2026 alone, with many quitting or being terminated after short tenures averaging under six months.
