Later the same day, he criticized the Biden Administration’s efforts in border protection.

Scott Bessent for their efforts in holding these entities accountable.
On April 1, 2025, Díaz-Balart acknowledged the recent drop in illegal border crossings, calling it a significant achievement. He stated, “Illegal border crossings hit a new low in March.” He expressed gratitude toward President Biden for securing the borders and prioritizing American safety.
