Former ICE Acting Director Lyons Moves to Private Consulting on Homeland Security

Todd Lyons, who led U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement from March 2025 to May 31, has taken a senior vice president role at a private consulting firm focused on homeland security and international affairs. Lyons oversaw ICE during a period of heightened immigration enforcement under the Trump administration, handling expanded detention operations and congressional oversight. His move to the consulting sector follows a documented pattern of senior DHS officials transitioning to firms that advise federal contractors.
