Homeland Security Investigations Rebrands to Distance from ICE

HSI aims to improve cooperation with sanctuary cities by removing ICE affiliations from its branding.

  • HSI, a branch of ICE, is rebranding to distance itself from the contentious politics of immigration enforcement.
  • The rebrand includes a new website, email addresses, and agency insignia, all devoid of ICE references.
  • HSI's main focus is on transnational crimes, not immigration arrests, which has been a point of contention in sanctuary cities.
  • Officials hope the rebrand will facilitate better collaboration with local law enforcement and community organizations.
  • The change, while significant, requires no legislative action but could be reversed by future administrations.
