It's been the honor of my life to serve alongside them. I'll forever be an advocate for, and champion of, DHS and its people.
I leave @DHSgov with confidence in our nation’s ability to confront the threats and challenges that lie ahead and with pride in our work to keep our country safe. Read more about our work and our enduring mission: dhs.gov/news/2025/01/17/dhs-…
In a few hours, my time as @DHS_DepSec will end. I leave with immense gratitude to the 260,000 dedicated, talented, selfless members of the @DHSgov workforce - the best in the world – and @SecMayorkas.
America keeps its promises, and none is more sacrosanct than the one we make to those who serve with our troops. That’s why, since 2002, @USCIS has naturalized over 187,000 service members - new citizens who embody the best of our country. #WeAreDHS ⤵️

Teams across @ICEgov enforce our laws and keep communities safe—last fiscal year, they removed 270,000+ noncitizens, including those who threatened public and national security, seized 1.6m pounds of illicit narcotics, and supported 1,783 child victims of exploitation. #WeAreDHS

On #NationalLawEnforcementAppreciationDay, we honor the 80,000 law enforcement professionals across DHS who secure our borders, dismantle criminal networks, protect federal facilities, rescue those in danger, & uphold our nation’s ideals. Their impact is felt every day. #WeAreDHS
Since 1976, wherever President Carter went - the White House, Sunday School, diplomatic trips and construction sites - the @SecretService went with him. As we honor President Carter today, we also thank the scores of agents who served on his detail for their service. #WeAreDHS
The impact of the @CBP Nogales POE team isn’t just measurable in pills and pounds of illicit narcotics seized – it's measurable in lives saved and communities safeguarded. #WeAreDHS
It's a new year at @DHSgov, but our mission - to safeguard the American people and our homeland - is unchanged. Throughout the next two weeks, I’ll highlight some of our team's work. Join me in recognizing and thanking them for all they do to keep us safe and secure. #WeAreDHS
