The Secretary of Homeland Security and the Secretary of Defense released the below joint statement:
"Tonight,
National Guard troops are deploying to support border security missions along
the U.S. southwest border. Working
closely with the border governors, the Department of Homeland Security
identified security vulnerabilities that could be addressed by the National
Guard. We appreciate the governors'
support and are dedicated to working with them to secure the national borders.
"Together, the
Departments of Homeland Security and Defense are committed to using every lever
of power to support the men and women of law enforcement defending our nation's
sovereignty and protecting the American people.
We will continue to work with the governors to deploy the necessary
resources until our nation's borders are secure."
