Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem arrived in Portland on October 7, 2025, for a visit to a local ICE facility, drawing attention amid national debates over immigration enforcement. She landed at Portland International Airport, met with Governor Tina Kotek, and toured the ICE site at South Macadam Avenue and Bancroft Street, with temporary road closures enacted for security. The City of Portland, a sanctuary city, confirmed it would provide public safety support but not assist with federal immigration enforcement. Conservative commentator Benny Johnson was present for an interview, while Senator Ron Wyden criticized the visit, accusing Noem of inciting division. No official agenda or public remarks were released.
