During my port tours at Sumas and Lynden, WA, I met with our @DFOSeattle officers securing the U.S. northern border while enforcing lawful trade and travel. Their professionalism and dedication are critical to securing the longest international border in the world. #OFOProud🇺🇸

Great to attend this year's Criminal Task Force Officer Training, an important initiative bringing together law enforcement partners. This training plays a critical role in national security by strengthening collaboration & preparing TFOs to counter evolving threats. #OFOProud🇺🇸

I'm with @FOAAcademyDir for the midterm mentor visit with Session 689 at the Field Operations Academy. It's an honor to mentor, support, and guide the next generation of CBP officers. Keep pushing — you're halfway there! #FutureLeaders #OFOProud🇺🇸

It's hard to overstate the importance of @CBP's work at our land ports of entry. Observed ops at the Nogales ports of entry this week, where dedicated officers and specialists ensure the secure processing of travelers and goods to keep America secure & prosperous. #OFOProud🇺🇸

[(A)Dep Exec Asst Commissioner Donald R. Stakes @OFODEAC]

The @CBP team works in significant locations in the US. In Douglas, staff is responsible for processing goods at 2nd-largest commercial port in AZ. In Naco, the border station has been carefully preserved for its historical significance. Our team is part of history. #OFOProud🇺🇸

[(A)Dep Exec Asst Commissioner Donald R. Stakes @OFODEAC]

.@CBP at the Port of San Luis are busy! The team is standing ready to intercept contraband, while safely processing travelers & cargo. Each port is a unique case study into the great things that happen when teams are driven by the mission. Grateful for their efforts! #OFOProud🇺🇸

[(A)Dep Exec Asst Commissioner Donald R. Stakes @OFODEAC]

Many @CBP employees work in challenging or remote locations, but that doesn't stop them from carrying out our mission. Great to observe operations at Lukeville POE w/ Exec Director Jody Hardin. The team works hard to efficiently process travelers & secure 🇺🇸 borders. #OFOProud🇺🇸

Today, I had the privilege of attending & expressing gratitude for the selfless service of our fallen law enforcement heroes at #BlueMass. During #PoliceWeek & throughout the year, we honor those who devoted their lives to our protection. We will always remember their sacrifice.

Dropped by for an operational tour of the Port of Andrade. At the southeasternmost port of entry in Southern California, the team here inspects 600K+ vehicles & 1.7M+ travelers a year, working hard for US national security. #OFOProud🇺🇸
