It was an important move, as Comer was willing to issue subpoenas for their testimony.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Department of Homeland Security (DHS) initially sought to prevent Congress from hearing invaluable testimony from Chief Patrol Agents, believing that DHS\u2019s internal protocols superseded Congressional oversight prerogatives,\u201d Comer stated. \u201cI am pleased that the DHS is no longer taking such a position, and will make available as witnesses Chief Patrol Agent Gloria Chavez, Rio Grande Valley Sector and Chief Patrol Agent John Modlin, Tucson Sector.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese two law enforcement professionals also serve as Lead Field Coordinators for the border regions that collectively include Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California,\u201d Comer added. \u201cI look forward to their attendance at the February 7, 2023 hearing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a <a href=\"https:\/\/oversight.house.gov\/release\/comer-to-hold-hearing-on-bidens-border-crisis-with-u-s-border-patrol-agents\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Statement<\/a>, Comer slammed the Biden administration\u2019s border policies and vowed to hold the administration accountable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Biden Administration\u2019s radical open borders policies have ignited the worst border crisis in American history. Starting on day one in office, President Biden and his administration rolled back deterrent focused policies, halted the construction of the border wall, gutted interior enforcement, pushed amnesty for illegal immigrants \u2013 all of which have made it difficult for U.S. Border Patrol agents to secure the border,\u201d Comer. \u201cNext week, we will hear firsthand from the Border Patrol about this humanitarian and national security crisis. Oversight Republicans are committed to holding the Biden Administration accountable for its dereliction of duty and\u00a0look forward to hearing testimony from those on the ground battling this crisis.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Biden administration has reportedly caved to the new Republican-controlled Congress and will allow top Border Patrol chiefs to testify in a hearing next week.
