Good morning. The Subcommittee will come to order.
First of all, I would like to sincerely thank all of our guests here today. We thank you for being here and taking time out of your schedule to share with us today your outlook for your departments and agencies, especially from the budget aspect.
Collectively, your offices have the responsibility for ensuring that we, as a country, are prepared to mitigate, respond to, and ideally preempt biological—and in some cases, man-made—threats to the American people.
The work agents and officers of U.S. Customs and Border Protection do every day has immense importance to both our national and economic security.
Put simply, their collective job is to keep bad things and people from entering the country illegally.
However, our agents and officers' jobs are made harder by the President's fundamentally unserious budget request for CBP.
The Subcommittee on Homeland Security will come to order.
Today we welcome Acting Director Tae Johnson to discuss the fiscal year 2024 budget request for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Thank you for being here today to discuss your funding needs and the critical mission of enforcing our nation's immigration laws and investigating transnational criminal activity.
