'You're saying that because we're white, somehow there's an issue there,' U.S. Customs and Border Protection Acting Commissioner Mark Morgan said.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection Acting Commissioner Mark Morgan appeared to brush off concerns about the lack of diversity among leadership in U.S. immigration policy decision-making in a recent interview, asserting that it's the"content" of one's character that should matter.

While the CBP chief insisted that representation should not matter among immigration leadership, he then went on to praise the U.S. Border Patrol for being"the most diverse federal law enforcement organization." Despite Morgan's comments, however, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection as a whole has previously been condemned for having a significantly low percentage of women on its force out of any federal law agency.
