Feds to halt immigration enforcement surge in Minnesota

MINNEAPOLIS (CN) - The Trump administration will officially wind down its immigration enforcement operations in Minnesota, border czar Tom Homan announced Thursday.

"I have proposed, and President Trump has concurred, that this surge operation conclude," Homan said at a news conference. "A significant drawdown has already been underway this week and will continue through next week."

The withdrawal marks a significant pivot for Trump, who has faced intense legal and political pushback over the surge's scale and direction. 

This is a developing story and will be updated.
