Contrary to the allegations by my colleague disparaging our view of Customs and Border Protection agencies, I was actually very impressed by the professionalism of many of the Border Patrol agents that we met and had the opportunity to tour the facilities in McAllen and Brownsville with. I share the gentleman's commitment to a zero-tolerance policy. Frankly, one incident of sexual assault is far too much. This data will provide more transparency for Congress and for survivors and, frankly, more transparency for those members of the Border Patrol who are doing their job with respect to migrants. Mr. Chair, how much time do I have remaining? The CHAIR. The gentlewoman from New Hampshire has 1 minute remaining. Mr. Chair, I am happy to work with my colleagues to ensure that Customs and Border Protection has the resources to comply with this provision, but we need more transparency for survivors. Mr. Chair, I yield 1 minute to the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Pelosi), the Speaker of the House. {time} 1930
