Dear Chair DeLauro, Ranking Member Granger, Chair Leahy, and Vice Chair Shelby:

As you begin deliberations on final funding legislation for fiscal year 2023 (FY 2023), stakeholders interested in the trade and travel facilitation activities of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) at air, sea, and land ports-of-entry are writing to request your favorable consideration of two items: providing sufficient funding to hire additional CBP Office of Field Operations (OFO) staff, and restoring the continued shortfall in user fee revenue to support current CBP staffing levels and operations.

See attached for full letter
