This week, @SecMayorkas is in Guatemala to meet with President César Bernardo Arévalo de León, a continuation of last month’s trilateral ministerial with Mexico in Washington, DC & discussions on our shared efforts to address irregular migration & displacement across our region.

We are pleased that today’s court ruling means that the parole processes for individuals from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela will continue. Read my full statement ⬇️

Tonight, @POTUS recognized the incredible work the men and women of @DHSgov do every day, often at great personal risk, to help keep the American people safe & secure. We have made historic efforts to seize more fentanyl and bring more smugglers to justice than ever before. (1/5)

🎂 It's our birthday! We've been on the job safeguarding our homeland for 184,080 hours since our inception in 2003. Today we're celebrating 21 years of concerted effort to protect our homeland against acts of terrorism - all thanks to our #DHSWorkforce. Happy birthday team.

As extreme heat, worsened by the climate crisis, threatens the lives, safety, & security of communities everywhere, this administration is working across all levels of government to ensure communities have resources to protect the public & our nation’s critical infrastructure.

.@POTUS signed a major disaster declaration for Hawaii that will provide additional federal assistance to the community. If you are impacted by the fires, visit DisasterAssistance.gov, call 800-621-FEMA (3362) or use the FEMA App for more info on available resources.

The CBP One app is working for migrants. Beginning today, June 1, CBP is expanding the number of appointments to 1,250 per day. Hear more from @DHSgov Assistant Secretary Nuñez-Neto in Brownsville, TX ⬇️

We encourage residents in the path of #Mawar to listen to local officials and @FEMA staff. I am continuously proud of our FEMA workforce, including the current 50+ staff in Guam, who are on the ground before and long after disasters impact our fellow Americans. Stay safe.

The United States has & will continue to enforce our nation’s immigration laws. The U.S. border is not open to illegal or irregular migration, & U.S. immigration laws will be tougher now that the Title 42 public health Order has ended. Get the facts ⬇️ DHS.gov/immigrationlaws

Blas Nuñez-Neto, the Assistant Secretary of Border and Immigration at the Department of Homeland Security, joins us to speak about the end of Title 42, the new policies that face multiple lawsuits, and how U.S. officials are preparing for what’s next.

Starting tonight, people who arrive at the border without using a lawful pathway will be presumed ineligible for asylum. We are ready to humanely process and remove people without a legal basis to remain in the U.S. (1/4)

The Biden-Harris Administration is using every available tool to humanely manage the border. But as DHS’s Blas Nuñez-Neto put it, “We are not a dictatorship. We are a democracy. That means that there are limits to what the President can do on his own without Congress.”

It’s official! ⚓🐻 The Honarable @SecMayorkas, Secretary of the @DHSgov, has been announced as the keynote speaker at #USCGA’s Commencement Wednesday, May 17, 2023. The event is scheduled to begin at 11:00 a.m. & is NOT open to the public. @USCG news.uscg.mil/Press-Releases…
