Protect America's Borders

Border Patrol Agents work in a challenging and rewarding environment that requires them to be physically fit, mentally alert, and emotionally resilient. They are the frontline defenders of our nation's borders, working tirelessly to prevent smuggling, apprehend undocumented immigrants, and protect our communities from threats both foreign and domestic.

• Patrol U.S. borders on foot or by vehicle to detect evidence of illegal entry;
• Question individuals suspected of violating immigration laws;
• Gather intelligence on smuggling operations and provide critical information to support law enforcement efforts;
• Work closely with other agencies to identify and disrupt transnational crime organizations;
