ICE, CBP Defend Training as Lawmakers Probe Minnesota Shootings.

The article focuses on a House Homeland Security Committee hearing where senior U.S. immigration officials discussed training protocols for officers involved in federal operations in Minnesota, particularly in light of two fatal shootings during enforcement actions. ICE Director Todd Lyons and CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott confirmed that their officers receive training on constitutional limits, crowd control, and the use of force, including ongoing refresher courses related to First and Fourth Amendment rights. The hearing also addressed the availability of less-lethal options for officers and the current deployment of body-worn cameras among immigration agents, with fewer than a quarter currently equipped. The discussion highlighted bipartisan concerns over the handling of the Minnesota operation, with calls for greater transparency and accountability following the incidents.
