Funding signed! Most pro-law enforcement president ever. Thank you @POTUS! 🇺🇸

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

Well it is about time!  Thank you!

The border doesn't shut down when Washington plays politics.

Cartels don't stop operating because Congress is playing politics.

And Border Patrol agents don't stop showing up when democrats threaten the funding they depend on.

This bill provides the resources, technology, and certainty needed to keep securing America's borders.

A stronger Border Patrol means a more secure border.

A more secure border means a safer America.

[Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson]

House Republicans voted to end DEMOCRATS’ DANGEROUS DHS SHUTDOWN once and for all.

Washington Democrats gained **NOTHING** from their RECKLESS CRUSADE to return our country to OPEN BORDERS and UNFETTERED MASS MIGRATION.

Republicans will ALWAYS stand with America’s law enforcement.

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

Save money for months, pay a smuggler $$$$, risk your life traveling to the U.S. illegally, all to get arrested within minutes and deported within hours.

Not smart! Save your money, save your life, stay home!

Thank you to @secwar and @deptofwar @Secrubioo for helping secure the border and keep America safe.

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

Outstanding work by @CBPAMO, @USCG, and our international partners.

This week, Air Interdiction Agents located a vessel carrying 240 migrants from Haiti attempting an illegal maritime migration. The overcrowded vessel was taking on water and in danger of sinking.

Our personnel helped prevent what could have been a catastrophic loss of life while stopping yet another illegal migration attempt.

The message remains clear: illegal maritime migration is dangerous, it is not worth the risk, and you will not gain entry into the US.

.@CBPCommissioner Rodney Scott explains @POTUS' new customs Executive Order: "It's America First in the trade environment. Like we've been doing on the border... this is literally taking the same principles and applying them to trade, to protect American industry."

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

Today we signed The Customs Reform Executive Order, putting America First for trade enforcement. It protects domestic industry from unfair competition, holds bad actors accountable, and reinforces that economic security is national security.

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

Thank you for your leadership and support @SecMullinDHS!

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

Today, I’m proud to announce Rosario “Pete” Vasquez as the @USBPChief of the U.S. Border Patrol.

Pete has dedicated more than 26 years to securing our Nation’s borders and serving the men and women of the Border Patrol. As we continue building on the most secure border in history, I can't think of no one better prepared to lead this organization into its next chapter.

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

Today is personal for me.

Before I ever had the privilege of leading this organization, I wore the green uniform and stood the line alongside the men and women of the U.S. Border Patrol. I know the sacrifices made behind the badge, the long nights, the missed moments with family, and the pride that comes with serving something greater than yourself.

For 102 years, Border Patrol agents have answered the call with courage, grit, and an unwavering commitment to protecting this nation. I could not be prouder to have been one of them.

Happy 102nd Birthday to the U.S. Border Patrol and to every agent, past and present, who continues to carry the mission forward.

Honor First!

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

Today, we honor the 161 Border Patrol Agents who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.

For nearly 102 years, Border Patrol Agents have defended our nation against evolving threats while remaining steadfast in the mission to secure America’s borders and protect the American people.

Because of their courage and service, our country is safer and stronger. We will never forget their sacrifice.

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

This Police Week, we honor our fallen.

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

This Police Week, we honor our fallen.

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

CBP is committed to securing the U.S. borders and preventing illegal immigrant crossings, drug trafficking, and human trafficking. We now have the tools, funding, and support to pursue this mission more than ever before.

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

Every mile of border wall adds another layer of security for our agents, our communities, and our nation.

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

.@CBP mourns the loss of Border Patrol Agent Sean M. McDonough.

BPA McDonough started his CBP career in 2007. He recently served at the Wellesley Island Border Patrol Station, Buffalo Sector in New York. He also served in Nogales Station and in Houlton Sector. BPA McDonough also served in the U.S. Army, Army National Guard, and as a Military Police Officer.

He is a true hero who selflessly served to protect America.

As a CBP family, we extend our deepest condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of BPA McDonough.

[CBP @CBP]

The eye in the sky! @CBPCommissioner Scott is flying along with @CBPAMO. The Air and Marine Operations team is a very integral part of CBP. They protect our airspace as well as all oceans, rivers, and lakes that border the United States. #CBP #HonorFirst #CBPAMO

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

Another display of heroes protecting the homeland, but through science.

Meet our @CBPLSSAC (Laboratories and Scientific Services) staff of Miami, a fantastic team of scientists dedicated to keeping America safe.

This is what Congress continues to prevent from being funded…

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

Every day, the men and women of CBP intercept drugs and other contraband from entering our country. This is just one example of how our personnel keep America safe, even at a time when Congress refuses to act and fund DHS.

[Homeland Security @DHSgov]

MASSIVE DRUG BUST.

@CBP officers in El Paso intercepted nearly 100 POUNDS of cocaine worth more than $1.1 MILLION.

Thank you to these officers for preventing these drugs from entering our communities and killing Americans.

BREAKING: CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott warns Congress about the DAMAGE being done to our border security due to the DHS shutdown:

"Seven months into the fiscal year, CBP has been shut down more than we've been open."

"One obvious impact of this funding lapse is the thousands of personnel that have gone without pay... Border surveillance equipment that requires maintenance is offline until funding is appropriated."
