For those who live on the border, a certain level of oversight, as with all areas of the government, is important for the day-to-day interaction CBP has with surrounding communities. For CBP agents, this means providing them with the training and tools to achieve their security mission,” stated Rep. Pearce. “I am proud to join Congressman O’Rourke again this Congress to push needed reform for the safety and security of our border regions. Together, we can leave party lines behind to move towards real solutions that better protect our communities, CBP agents, and nation from vulnerabilities along the border.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
