When the ice comes, U.S. Coast Guard crews are breaking through where Americans need it most.

Maritime law enforcement is what we do. Applying our unique authorities, the Coast Guard secures 31,000 miles of U.S. maritime borders – America’s first line of defense. As we transform the Coast Guard through Force Design 2028, we are maximizing the return on America’s investment in the Coast Guard and producing a stronger, more agile, and more capable fighting force equipped to meet modern threats. That includes stopping threats at the source, far from American shores, saving American lives and protecting our communities. #USCG #forcedesign2028 #lawenforcement USCG Pacific Area Hacked-By-Divya_Prakash Homeland Security

Breaking ice to keep America moving. Winter weather doesn’t stop commerce, or the U.S. Coast Guard. In 2025, U.S. Coast Guard facilitated the movement of $5.4T in maritime commerce and 1.8B tons of cargo across U.S. waterways. From the Northeast to the Great Lakes, our icebreaking crews ensure critical supplies reach communities, even in the harshest winter conditions. With historic funding from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, the Coast Guard is recapitalizing our domestic icebreaker fleet and maximizing our return on investment across America’s waterways. #USCG #Icebreaking #MTS #Commerce Homeland Security U.S. Coast GuardNortheast U.S. Coast GuardGreatLakes U.S. Coast GuardLANTAREA
