PHOTOS: Behind the scenes as KSAT crew prepares for congressional delegation in Eagle Pass

EAGLE PASS – To continue KSAT’s ongoing U.S./Mexico border series called ”The Line”, we sent a team of journalists to Eagle Pass to prepare for an upcoming congressional visit.

Reporter Daniela Ibarra, Photojournalist Gavin Nesbitt and Digital Journalist Andrew Wilson traveled to the border to see what locals were asking from the federal government and to see what kind of impact the recent influx of migrants had on the city.

Below are photos and videos from their first day of coverage. Follow along with Daniela’s reporting on her X page, and livestream the entire congressional press conference via KSAT+.
