Kristi Noem, chosen by the president-elect, will lead the department managing critical immigration and border issues, focusing on mass deportations and border access.
Noem will oversee U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and Citizenship and Immigration Services, addressing key immigration policies and challenges.
Replacing Alejandro Mayorkas, who faced impeachment by Republicans for increasing migration, Noem steps into a tumultuous role reminiscent of the challenges in the Trump administration.
The position Noem will assume is marked by high pressure, with six different individuals having held the homeland security secretary role during Trump’s presidency.
