Violence in Portland dragged on for nearly two months, with DHS officers suffering 240+ injuries, while local leaders put politics over public safety. They've finally agreed to do their job. But a few myths persist… Myth: DHS officers have been replaced by state and local police.

Facts: DHS's mission to protect federal property doesn't stop, and we will continue to fulfill it.

The state of Oregon is finally addressing the violence and partnering with DHS officers.

It’s unfortunate that @AmericanAir , @united, and @FlyFrontier no longer want to partner with the brave men and women of DHS to protect the traveling public, combat human trafficking, and to swiftly reunite unaccompanied illegal immigrant children with their families. Despite being provided facts on this issue, these airlines clearly do not understand our immigration laws and the long-standing devastating loopholes that have caused the crisis at our southern border.
