On March 30, Congressman Arrington and Babi led a Texas Congressional Delegation trip to assess the partisan divide in how the Biden administration is responding to the migrant situation from McAllen, Laredo, and Carrizo Springs.

Members met with local stakeholders such as local law enforcement, landowners, small business owners, and health care providers; visit with U.S. Customs and Border Patrol officials, the Maritime Boundary Line off the coast of Corpus Christi, the McAllen Drug Enforcement Administration district office, visited the border wall, the Port of Entry at Laredo, and the Carrizo Springs Influx Care Facility.
