As we continue addressing the consequences of those failed policies, we must ensure that our Northern border does not become the next weak link in our security posture. This hearing will provide an opportunity to hear directly from experts on the frontlines and identify the resources, technology, and authorities needed to support our law enforcement officers and agents and keep Americans safe.

Guest committed to using a Homeland Security subcommittee hearing to examine Northern border security and identify needed resources, technology, and authorities for law enforcement.

Guest promised to use Homeland Security Committee oversight to examine Northern border security challenges and identify needed resources, technology, and authorities. During his current federal House term, his Homeland Security Border Security and Enforcement Subcommittee held a June 30, 2026 Northern border oversight hearing with relevant law enforcement and GAO witnesses, and Guest personally framed the hearing around identifying gaps in personnel, infrastructure, technology, authorities, resources, and oversight. That directly satisfies the oversight commitment, even though it was an oversight action rather than enactment of a new policy.
