This is of particular concern at the Port of Houston, which is the
busiest port in the nited States in terms of foreign tonnage, second-
busiest in the United States in terms of overall tonnage, and
fifteenth-busiest in the world. DHS, through U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the Transportation
Security Administration, and the U.S. Coast Guard, administers several
essential programs that secure our Nation's ports and waterways. I include in the Record a letter dated March 30, 2017, that I sent to
the Chair and Ranking Member of the Committee on Homeland Security
requesting a field hearing on the topic of port security.
