Executive Assistant Commissioner Diane J. Sabatino used her social media platform on March 31, 2026, to share updates and reminders related to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) activities and public safety.
In a post at 14:00 UTC, Sabatino advised travelers to prepare for their trips by consulting official resources. She wrote, "No matter the travel destination, you need to know before you go. Check our website to make sure you are prepared before your trip." The message was accompanied by links directing readers to further information.
An hour later, at 15:00 UTC, Sabatino reported recent law enforcement actions at southern border ports of entry. She stated, "STOPPED AT THE PORT – Laredo Field Office In one week, CBP officers at ports in Laredo, Eagle Pass & Progreso apprehended 4 fugitives wanted for felony offenses including murder & sex crimes against children. Accountability doesn’t stop at the border. #OFOproud" The post highlighted ongoing efforts by CBP officers in apprehending individuals wanted for serious criminal offenses.
At 16:00 UTC on the same day, Sabatino commemorated a fallen colleague with a tribute post: "We remember the life and sacrifice of CBP Technician Van Dong who died in the line of duty on this day in 2020 while serving @DFOLosAngeles. He dedicated 30 years of service to the federal government. We thank him and our hearts are with his loved ones. #LODD #gonebutnotforgotten"
