President Joe Biden on Jan. 8 made his first visit to the U.S.–Mexico border since taking office two years ago to assess the growing illegal immigration crisis and to review enforcement operations.

After seeing the conditions firsthand and speaking with U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers, Biden said: “They need a lot of resources. We’re going to get it for them.”
