Representative Jodey Arrington (TX-19) today issued a statement following the announcement of Customs and Border Protection finding no evidence of the Biden Administration's false claims of Border Patrol agents whipping Haitian migrants at the southern border.

"Shame on the Biden Administration for falsely accusing these border agents on horseback of wrongdoing and prejudicing the public by their rhetoric when they were simply carrying out their duty to secure our border," said Arrington. "The American people respect our law enforcement officers for protecting our sovereignty and citizens, but they are sick and tired of the abject failure by President Biden and Secretary Mayorkas to uphold their sacred duty, enforce our laws, and put the security of our citizens first."
