"President Trump deserves a Congress that stands firmly behind his agenda," Sheahan wrote in a resignation letter to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, a copy of which was obtained by Axios."
"For that reason, effective immediately, I respectfully submit this letter of resignation so that I may continue serving my country in a different capacity."
"In less than one year at ICE, I've stopped more illegal immigration than Marcy Kaptur has in her 43 years in Washington," Sheahan says in the video."
"While Republicans from near and far will fight through a messy primary in this district they gerrymandered again just this fall, Congresswoman Kaptur is focused on delivering real results for her constituents," Kaptur's campaign said in a statement. "Voters are tired of the self-dealing corruption and culture of lawlessness they've seen over the last year. They want a leader focused on affordability and real results, and Marcy Kaptur consistently works across the aisle to deliver both."
Riley Sheahan resigned from her ICE post and submitted a resignation letter to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, saying President Trump deserves a supportive Congress. Sheahan launched a campaign for Ohio's 9th district, a seat held by Rep. Marcy Kaptur, and branded herself a "Trump conservative" while highlighting her ICE record. The district voted for Trump in 2024 and mid-decade redistricting is expected to favor Republicans, though Kaptur has repeatedly defended the seat. Sheahan is a 28-year-old district native with experience at Ohio State University, the Ohio Republican Party, Noem's office, Louisiana state government, and ICE.
