Biden discusses border security in Brownsville

BROWNSVILLE, TEXAS – President Biden spoke at a press conference held at the Border Patrol Station in Brownsville on Feb. 29, 2024.

He said he had just received a briefing from the Border Patrol at the border, as well as immigration, law enforcement and asylum officers. 

“They’re all doing incredible work under really tough conditions, really tough conditions. They each told me what you already know and we already know: They desperately need more resources,” Biden said.

“I’ll say it again: they desperately need more resources. They need more agents, more officers, more judges, more equipment in order to secure our border. Folks, it’s time for us to move on this. We can’t wait any longer.”

Biden urged passage of a border security bill currently before Congress.
