White House Restarts Immigration Traffic Stops After Two Fatal Shootings

The White House said July 16 that immigration agents will keep pulling over vehicles, reversing a pause ordered after agents fatally shot two immigrants during traffic stops in Houston and Biddeford, Maine, in early July 2026. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said, "Vehicle stops are continuing." President Trump supported the reversal on Truth Social. No written order has been issued.
