My work will continue to focus on fighting for funding that helps our border community address our challenges, reforms that will help both agents and migrants, and Congressional legislation to create legal pathways that will alleviate the pressures at our border. I hope Republican members of Congress one day soon decide to act legislatively instead of performatively.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T03:24:37Z |
