Trump ramps up Border Patrol recruitment, in bid to hire thousands of new agents
President Trump doesn�t yet have his "big, beautiful" border wall, but the administration
is ramping up recruitment of border agents going into the new year in a bid to enhance
security with more manpower � if not bricks and barbed wire.
Up until now, the White House�s fix to immigration issues has included Trump reversing many of
his predecessor�s policies, increasing round-ups of illegal immigrants and restricting the
number of refugees allowed into the country.
There has been some success: The number of people trying to sneak over the border has
dropped to its lowest level in four decades.
Illegal border crossings are down 24 percent, according to the Department of Homeland Security's
most recent statistics, released in December.
During the government�s 2017 fiscal year, border agents made 310,531 arrests.
While construction of the highly touted border wall with Mexico still hasn�t started, the
administration hopes to build on the statistical trendlines by carrying out a January executive
order to hire 5,000 new Border Patrol agents.
To accelerate the hires, the federal government on Nov. 17 awarded a massive five-year, $297-million
contract to a division of Accenture.
Accenture will also be responsible for hiring 2,000 customs officers and 500 new agents
for the Office of Air and Marine Operations.
The proposed hiring surge is the largest since the George W. Bush administration, when Congress
funded an expansion of border enforcement following the Sept. 11 terror attacks.
The newest push to recruit 5,000 new agents, though, comes with its own set of pitfalls.
Already, the union is concerned about a rush to hire amid concerns about corruption in
the ranks.
As long as the Border Patrol continues to place priority on the quantity of recruits
rather than the quality of recruits, corruption within the Border Patrol will continue to
be a problem,� the National Border Patrol Council told Fox News in a statement.
The administration enters this task at a disadvantage.
The number of officers has actually dropped by 220 as the Border Patrol continues to struggle
to meet minimal staffing quotas set by lawmakers.
Congress requires a force of 21,370 agents � but an employee count in May revealed
there were only 19,500 agents on the job.
Making matters worse is that between 2013 and 2016, an average of 523 agents were hired
while another 904 left.
According to former Department of Homeland Security watchdog John Roth, it takes more
than nine months to hire one Border Patrol agent and about seven months to hire an ICE
officer.
Roth told the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs in February
that an audit �highlighted numerous bottlenecks in effective hiring� and there were �inadequate
systems to track and process applicants� at DHS.
Critics argue that in order to meet the ambitious hiring goal, the applicant pool will be widened
and standards could be sacrificed.
