Anthony Coker serves as the Executive Director of the State Board of Immigration Enforcement, bringing more than a decade of federal service and a distinguished background in military and law enforcement leadership to his role. A Marine Corps veteran, former Florida law enforcement officer, and seasoned Department of Homeland Security professional, Anthony has built a career defined by strategic oversight, operational excellence, and effective federal–state collaboration. During his ten years with the Department of Homeland Security, Anthony was detailed to DHS Headquarters in Washington, D.C., where he oversaw the national ICE 287(g) Task Force Program, a cornerstone initiative of President Trump, supporting local–federal immigration enforcement partnerships. His leadership and operational expertise later led to his selection as the first DHS/ICE Liaison in the State of Florida, where he established new communication frameworks and strengthened interagency cooperation across multiple jurisdictions.
