This Congress has made great strides to provide more resources for law enforcement departments, but we should do more.
The loss of 6 agents will have an impact not just in border monitoring, but in criminal detention.

I hope the death of Trooper Saunders will be met with action and efforts to secure our borders and protect our law enforcement services.
