Homan describes the effort as making the state of Minnesota safer.
"I have proposed, and President Trump has agreed, that this expanded effort be terminated," Homan said.
"A significant drawdown has already begun this week, and will continue next week."
The announcement comes after recent high-profile events in the city of Minneapolis - where two American citizens were shot dead by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and federal border agents.
The events have sparked strong protests among Minnesota residents.
According to federal authorities, the hunt for undocumented immigrants in Minneapolis has led to more than 4,000 arrests. The White House describes those arrested as "dangerous criminals." However, it has been revealed that many of those detained had no criminal records. Several cases of arrests of children and American citizens have also drawn sharp criticism.
