Here is a rewritten version of the news article in a neutral newsroom style:
US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials have confirmed that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents will be deployed to US airports starting on Monday. The deployment was announced by Tom Homan, the acting director of CBP.
According to reports, ICE agents will assist with airport security efforts as part of a partial government shutdown. The deployment is intended to help ensure the safety and security of travelers at US airports.
The announcement comes after President Trump stated that he would order federal immigration officers to help with airport security unless Democrats end the current government shutdown. The shutdown has been ongoing since December 22, and it affects various government agencies, including CBP.
ICE agents will be working alongside Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officials at airports to enhance security measures. The deployment is expected to take place on Monday, although specific details have not been released.
The move is part of a broader effort by the Trump administration to address border security concerns during the government shutdown.
