I want to begin by offering my condolences to the families of Jakelin Caal Maquin and Felipe Gomez-Alonso and other migrant children who have died in U.S. custody.

I really appreciate your comments about how we need--how our infrastructure at ports of entry is outdated, and that we need to invest in them.

I support providing hazard pay to front-line workers who face increased exposure to the virus while on duty.

Now, Chief Hastings, I deeply appreciate the work that the men and women of Border Patrol do every single day and have done in the past year to mitigate the situation we saw at the Southern Border.
