Lawmakers' request for ICE officer's training file
Gone quiet since
Where it stands
As of July 31, 2026, Rep. Robert Garcia and Sen. Richard Blumenthal had asked DHS for ICE officer David Broulette’s training and vetting records, including whether he completed a shortened training period. The reports do not say DHS has responded or disclosed records, so the request remains unresolved.
