Within his first week in office, President Trump has visited both the CIA and DHS, the start of what a spokesman has said will be a frequent practice.
“The president continues to be humbled by the people who serve this nation and the work that they do so many times, without the proper recognition for the sacrifices that they make, in terms of time. So many of them could be making more in the private sector, but they continue to serve this government,” he said.
“He’s going to visit and make sure that he tells them how much he appreciates their service to our country, their commitment to acting an agenda of change and recognize how much they really do for this country … I think you’re going to see a lot of activity throughout, not just the first week, first month and the first year of making that a priority to thank so many of the people who serve our government,” he added.
Presidents most commonly visit agencies to make a statement or announce a policy on a topic pertinent to that agency.
