A plan to increase federal law enforcement presence in San Francisco has been temporarily halted by President Donald Trump, as he gives Mayor Daniel Lurie a chance to address the city’s crime challenges. This decision was confirmed by the White House, offering a brief reprieve from an anticipated surge of federal agents in the city.
Mayor Lurie shared via social media that during a phone call with President Trump on Wednesday night, the president agreed to delay the deployment of federal officers. The agents were originally set to begin arriving on Thursday, with at least 100 Customs and Border Protection agents expected to be part of the initial wave, according to sources.
However, it has been confirmed that there are no current plans to send additional Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to San Francisco at this stage.
