00:00:15.625 --> 00:00:18.833
The CDC's Title 42 Public
Health order ends on May 23rd.

00:00:19.500 --> 00:00:22.791
That means that all noncitizens
attempting entry will be processed

00:00:22.791 --> 00:00:25.541
under Title 8, traditional
immigration authorities

00:00:25.541 --> 00:00:28.041
under the Immigration
and Nationality Act.

00:00:28.041 --> 00:00:30.500
Under Title 8, individuals
who cross the border

00:00:30.500 --> 00:00:33.875
without legal authorization
will be processed for removal,

00:00:33.875 --> 00:00:37.541
and if unable to establish a legal
basis to remain in the United States,

00:00:37.541 --> 00:00:39.916
will be promptly removed
from the country.

00:00:39.916 --> 00:00:42.583
Asylum and other legal
migration pathways

00:00:42.583 --> 00:00:45.666
should remain available
to those seeking protection.

00:00:45.666 --> 00:00:49.333
But, economic need and flight
 from generalized violence

00:00:49.333 --> 00:00:52.041
are not basis for asylum.

00:00:52.041 --> 00:00:54.541
Smugglers will try to exploit
the end of Title 42.

00:00:55.083 --> 00:00:56.750
We're sending
a clear message.

00:00:56.750 --> 00:00:59.958
The United States is enforcing
its immigration laws today,

00:00:59.958 --> 00:01:01.958
will enforce them
on May 23rd,

00:01:01.958 --> 00:01:04.541
and will continue to enforce
them after May 23rd.

00:01:05.041 --> 00:01:07.500
At the same time, we're
planning for any contingencies

00:01:07.500 --> 00:01:10.875
in case there are any surges
of attempted migration.

00:01:10.875 --> 00:01:15.333
That includes increasing our collaboration
with other federal agencies,

00:01:15.333 --> 00:01:17.291
expanding temporary holding capacity,

00:01:17.291 --> 00:01:20.500
and planning for additional resources
so that we can transport migrants

00:01:20.500 --> 00:01:22.291
away from high traffic areas,

00:01:22.291 --> 00:01:25.416
and ensure that any encounter
is properly screened and vetted.

00:01:25.416 --> 00:01:27.875
CBP takes its responsibility seriously

00:01:27.875 --> 00:01:30.375
when it comes to the proper
care of those in our custody.

00:01:30.375 --> 00:01:32.291
So, we are also strengthening
our medical resources,

00:01:32.291 --> 00:01:34.083
to protect the health
of our workforce,

00:01:34.083 --> 00:01:35.666
the communities
where we serve,

00:01:35.666 --> 00:01:37.583
and the health
and safety of migrants.

00:01:37.583 --> 00:01:40.416
We're increasing our investigations
of smuggling networks

00:01:40.416 --> 00:01:42.375
and working closely
with our foreign government

00:01:42.375 --> 00:01:45.083
partners to conduct
joint enforcement operations.

00:01:45.666 --> 00:01:47.291
We're partnering
with the State Department

00:01:47.291 --> 00:01:49.791
and other agencies to
deter irregular migration

00:01:49.791 --> 00:01:53.333
south of the border and to counteract
the lies from human smugglers.

00:01:53.333 --> 00:01:58.000
I want to make clear: the U.S. border is not
open to anyone without authorization.

00:01:58.541 --> 00:02:01.000
DHS and CBP will continue
to protect our nation's

00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:03.208
national security
and public safety.

00:02:03.208 --> 00:02:05.958
CBP is committed to enforcing
our immigration laws

00:02:05.958 --> 00:02:09.083
in a manner that is safe,
orderly and humane

00:02:09.083 --> 00:02:10.791
and worthy of
the public's trust.

00:02:16.875 --> 00:02:19.041
This is the second year
that CBP has published

00:02:19.041 --> 00:02:22.083
an accountability report.
This report informs the

00:02:22.083 --> 00:02:25.666
American people and Congress
about the specific actions that CBP

00:02:25.666 --> 00:02:29.333
takes to ensure the
integrity of its workforce,

00:02:29.333 --> 00:02:32.291
sharing details about
our investigations,

00:02:32.291 --> 00:02:36.000
the outcomes of those investigations
and how members of the public

00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:39.375
can report allegations
of misconduct when they arise.

00:02:51.708 --> 00:02:55.500
One of the benefits of publishing
this annual accountability report

00:02:55.500 --> 00:02:57.750
is it gives the CBP
workforce and leadership

00:02:57.750 --> 00:03:00.666
the opportunity to
reflect on instances

00:03:00.666 --> 00:03:03.000
where our personnel
may have fallen short

00:03:03.000 --> 00:03:05.875
and to also ensure that we have
the proper controls and systems

00:03:05.875 --> 00:03:09.625
in place to prevent those same type
of incidents from occurring again.

00:03:09.625 --> 00:03:13.666
Having the trust of the
American public, Congress,

00:03:13.666 --> 00:03:17.041
all those combined is probably
the most important tool or asset

00:03:17.041 --> 00:03:21.000
CBP can have in order to be
successful in our mission

00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:23.416
at what we're trying to accomplish
on behalf of the American people.

00:03:23.416 --> 00:03:25.541
You got to have their
confidence and their trust.

00:03:25.541 --> 00:03:27.833
But trust is not
something you just have.

00:03:27.833 --> 00:03:31.250
It's work to get there
and to be there and to maintain it.

00:03:31.958 --> 00:03:33.750
So in order for us
to maintain that trust,

00:03:33.750 --> 00:03:35.750
we have to be working
at it constantly

00:03:35.750 --> 00:03:40.458
and so it comes to the
integrity of our leadership,

00:03:40.458 --> 00:03:41.666
the integrity of
our workforce.

00:03:41.666 --> 00:03:44.666
Those are key things
to developing this trust.

00:03:44.666 --> 00:03:46.541
Once you have a high
level of integrity,

00:03:46.541 --> 00:03:48.250
one, you're going to
hold yourself accountable

00:03:48.250 --> 00:03:50.750
and you're going to be
transparent.
