Proud to meet with brave men & women of @CBP today at their West Virginia training facility where every year more than 17,000 border patrol & law enforcement agents come to train to serve on our front lines.
.@CBP has apprehended more than 268,000 individuals trying to illegally cross our Southern Border since the beginning of the FY – nearly a 100% increase from the year prior. Every day we don’t secure our border, we are allowing this crisis to worsen & more lives to be endangered 
A vote against @POTUS’ emergency declaration is a vote against border security. A vote against the President’s emergency declaration is a vote to deny the humanitarian & security crisis at our southern border.
Today we call on every member of the U.S. Senate: Set politics aside. Stand up for border security. Stand with this @POTUS. And put the safety and security of the American people first.
