Today, CBP commemorated the construction of nearly 400 miles of new border wall system. The new border wall system is helping to secure the Southern border from illicit cross border activity. “We are shutting down illegal border crossing points with the new border wall system,” said U.S. Border Patrol Chief Rodney Scott. “For too long, the smugglers had the upper hand in choosing where and when they smuggle their contraband, and that will no longer be the case.” Press release: https://go.usa.gov
