ICE Out, Facial Recognition in for Super Bowl LX in the Bay Area
Officials confirmed no immigration enforcement by ICE during Super Bowl week at Levi's Stadium, emphasizing a coordinated security approach consistent with past events.
- On Feb 3, 2026, NFL chief security officer Cathy Lanier said federal security at Levi's Stadium will mirror past Super Bowls and that Immigration and Customs Enforcement will not be deployed, adding, `There are no planned ICE enforcement activities. We are confident of that.`
- After 18 months of planning, Jeff Branigan said Department of Homeland Security components support Santa Clara, San Francisco and San Jose security plans, not immigration enforcement, involving more than 35 agencies.
- The NFL labeled the event SEAR 1, and Chief Cory Morgan of Santa Clara Police Department urged, `We ask the public to help us` report suspicious activity, warning of increased federal personnel.
- Officials countered by saying NFL and local officials emphasize no ICE enforcement is expected despite earlier DHS adviser Corey Lewandowski’s remarks and immigrant-rights rallies plus a pro-ICE billboard in San Francisco.
- In the days ahead, Jeff Branigan said federal personnel will increase regionwide with more than 35 federal, state and local agencies on-site, while DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin declined to discuss future operations or immigration agent presence.
