At a public meeting, two commenters praised the announced reopening of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement office, known as VOICE, and criticized the Biden administration for having closed the office.

Resident 1, a public commenter, said: "Announcing the reopening of the ICE's victim of immigration crime engagement or the voice office. The voice office began during the first Trump administration, and it was a resource for those victims of crime." Resident 2, a public commenter, added: "I absolutely love that president Trump and secretary Noem is bringing back voice." Resident 1 said the office's closure under the Biden administration left victims without a place to seek help: "I literally cried when Biden took away voice because he took away the only place that I could go and get some, help. But to have this office back open for help, support, for fight. That's all I can help for so that other future families that unfortunately will go through what we did will have some backing." Resident 2 said they were grateful for the restoration and thanked meeting organizers: "This shows us that this administration cares, and they care about what happened to our children." Resident 2 concluded, "And I wanna thank everybody for putting this together and giving us a voice."

The comments characterized VOICE as a resource for victims of immigration-related crimes and framed the office's reopening as a restoration of support. Speakers also said they had written to President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris seeking assistance and felt they had been ignored after the office closed. The meeting record contains no formal motion, vote, or directive related to the VOICE office.

No additional factual detail about the office's current staffing, location, or specific services was provided in the public comments on the record, nor were any formal actions proposed at the meeting.
