Common Purslane in My Garden

I live in Phoenix, AZ and have a small raised bed (6 X 8) with vegetables planted in it. Once I begin watering, the common purslane pops up all over the bed! I have tried using a pre emergent (organic) to no avail and it grows so fast I can’t keep up with pulling it out. Any suggestions as to how to keep purslane at bay?
