US Senate Dems press Mullin to ensure all immigration agents have body cameras

A supermajority of U.S. Senate Democrats and independent Senator Angus King requested Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin to deploy body cameras to all immigration officers after two fatal shootings in Texas and Maine. The lawmakers cited Congress's $175 billion funding for DHS since 2023 and criticized the department for not prioritizing body-worn camera procurement despite earlier commitments.
