Rep. Sara Jacobs will be part of a Democratic delegation joining a visit to the U.S.-Mexico border Friday “to conduct oversight of Trump administration border policies firsthand.”
The announcement came Thursday from the office of Rep. Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, the ranking Democrat on the House Homeland Security Committee.
Jacobs, D-San Diego, is not a member of the committee, but will join Thompson and fellow committee Democrats Lou Correa of Santa Ana, Delia Ramirez of Illinois, LaMonica McIver and Nellie Pou of New Jersey and Tim Kennedy of New York.
Thompson’s office said the visit will include tours of Homeland Security facilities and technologies near San Diego. The delegation also will touch base with officials from Customs and Border Protection’s Office of Field Operations, the U.S. Border Patrol, CBP’s Air and Marine Operations and Homeland Security Investigations.
“The visit will also include a discussion with organizations working directly with migrants,” according to Thompson’s office.
Rep. Robert Garcia of Long Beach and Rep. Eric Swalwell of northern California, who are not scheduled to attend Friday’s border visit, are the only other California Democrats on the committee.
Republicans have an 18-14 majority on the panel.
