Scott Perry and signed by eleven other Republicans on the HFC board. In it, they mention the accusations from many Democratic politicians and media outlets that Border Patrol agents were whipping Haitian migrants at the southern border after video and pictures emerged of agents riding horseback with reins.<\/p>\n<p>The Horseback Border Patrol units who were accused of whipping the Haitian migrants were reassigned to desk duties while officials investigated the incident.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/USBPDelRioSector\/videos\/978256902751732\">said<\/a> the agents were using long reins to control their horses during a press conference in September 2021 and said an investigation is underway.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThe Biden Administration applies the principle of \u2018innocent until proven guilty\u2019 only when it\u2019s convenient to the Left\u2019s woke narrative and the President\u2019s failing agenda. Secretary Mayorkas\u2019 highly politicized investigation into widely-debunked lies of Border Patrol Agents \u2018whipping\u2019 migrants appears to be designed to target, smear, and intimidate the heroic men and women of federal law enforcement \u2014 all while demonstrating the White House\u2019s outright contempt of the US Border Patrol mission,\u201d Perry told the Daily Caller before sending the letter.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here Are The Questions The Lawmakers Ask In The Letter:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Is there an ongoing investigation of the CBP agents involved in the Del Rio
