According to Homan, self-deportation is in the best interest of those who entered the country illegally. He explained that those who voluntarily leave could avoid long-term consequences that could bar them from reentry.
“There’s going to be a warning coming out … about 10 days from now, where we’re going to discuss this very issue and give the illegal aliens the right to self-deport, so they don’t get a bar placed onto them,” he added.
Homan warned that formal deportation carries severe consequences, which many migrants fail to consider. “If you get deported from this country, formally deported, there’s a bar placed on you from five to 20 years, depending on your case, and you can’t come back under any circumstance, even if you have a U.S. citizen child.”
Addressing concerns that ICE would conduct sweeping raids on churches or schools, Homan dismissed such claims as leftist propaganda.
“[I]f we have a significant public safety threat or national security threat, for instance, (if there’s an MS-13) in high school and we know he’s selling drugs, we know he’s harming other children at that school, we’re going to go to arrest him,” he clarified.
However, he made it clear that targeted operations are not the same as indiscriminate raids. “Doesn’t mean we’re doing a sweep of the high school. We’re not doing sweeps. We’re not doing sweeps to elementary schools. We’re not going to walk in a church and do a large enforcement operation.”
Homan emphasized that enforcement efforts would continue where necessary. “But when we have a public safety threat or national security threat, there’s no safe harbor. There’s sanctuary for them. So we’re going to go,” he stated firmly.
He further debunked claims that ICE engages in random arrests, explaining that every operation is carefully planned. “Everybody ICE arrests is a targeted enforcement operation. They actually do what they call a fugitive operation sheet. They know exactly who they’re looking for, pretty much where they’re going to find them. And other issues—are the children in the house—because they do a lot of investigation before they go arrest somebody.”

Republican lawmakers are working to ensure the Trump administration has the resources needed to enhance immigration enforcement. Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina recently confirmed that funding for stricter border measures is on its way.
“To those who believe that Republicans should fulfill their promises on border security, mass deportation of criminal illegal aliens: I agree,” Graham said in a statement released on his website.
He outlined key priorities in the upcoming budget, which is expected to be finalized in March. “That is why the Senate Budget Committee will be moving forward next week to give the Trump Administration’s Border Czar, Tom Homan, the money he needs to finish the wall, hire ICE agents to deport criminal illegal immigrants, and create more detention beds, so that we do not release more dangerous people into the country.”
Calling it a historic moment, Graham emphasized the urgency of the initiative. “This will be the most transformational border security bill in the history of our country. It’s time to act.”
As the Trump administration moves forward with aggressive border security measures, the push for self-deportation marks a significant shift in U.S. immigration policy. By giving illegal immigrants the option to leave voluntarily, officials hope to streamline enforcement while reducing the strain on immigration courts and detention facilities.
With ICE refuting left-wing misinformation about mass raids and Republicans securing critical funding, the administration is signaling that it is serious about restoring law and order at the border. This policy rollout could mark a turning point in the fight against illegal immigration—one that aligns with the promises made to the American people.
