Executive Assistant Commissioner Diane J. Sabatino, who oversees operations for U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Office of Field Operations (CBP OFO), shared updates on enforcement actions through her official Twitter account between May 8 and May 9, 2026.
On May 8, Sabatino reported that "In FY2025, CBP OFO denied entry to nearly 5,900 shipments worth over $140M under the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act. A risk based approach targets high risk goods and keeps forced labor products out of U.S. markets." The Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act prohibits the importation of goods made with forced labor from China’s Xinjiang region, reflecting ongoing U.S. efforts to combat human rights abuses in global supply chains.
Later that day, Sabatino described a drug interdiction at a Texas port: "STOPPED AT THE PORT Pharr, Texas
A tractor trailer hauling tile was sent to secondary. A K9 alert and scan flagged anomalies.
Inside the pallets, CBP officers found 200 packages containing 908.30 lbs of methamphetamine, valued at more than $8.1M.
#OFOproud" This seizure underscores CBP’s ongoing work intercepting narcotics at ports of entry.
On May 9, Sabatino highlighted an agricultural inspection involving cultural artifacts: "Bringing a traditional Hungarian Busó mask into the US? Make sure it's properly cleaned by @USDA standards! @DFOSanFrancisco agriculture specialists at Portland Int'l Airport recently seized this mask with unprocessed fur, unfleshed Racka sheep horns, and painted with blood." Such seizures are part of broader efforts by CBP agriculture specialists to prevent potential animal diseases or pests from entering the country via improperly processed animal products.
CBP OFO is responsible for securing America’s borders at ports of entry while facilitating lawful trade and travel. The agency regularly communicates its enforcement actions to inform the public about its priorities in stopping illicit goods and protecting public health.
