Portland’s mayor removed federal police tape around an ICE facility, defying a Homeland Security request ahead of a secretary’s visit.
Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler ordered the removal of police tape around an ICE facility on October 9, 2025, defying a federal request to maintain a security perimeter during a visit by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
The move, which followed tensions over local control versus federal authority, drew criticism from federal officials and conservative commentators who warned it endangered law enforcement.
Wheeler cited local safety judgment and skepticism over federal justification for the perimeter, part of a broader conflict over immigration enforcement and jurisdiction.
