Today’s top story: Texas Governor Greg Abbott defends migrant tactics in Eagle Pass amidst escalating legal battle with the Biden administration. In a press conference, Abbott criticized President Biden’s handling of the southern border and reiterated his commitment to protecting the state from what he termed an “invasion” of migrants. Despite immigration law enforcement falling under federal jurisdiction, Abbott claims that the Biden administration has failed to enforce immigration laws, leaving Texas to fend for itself. Abbott’s enforcement measures include the erection of razor wire as a barrier between the Rio Grande River and Shelby Park, where federal agents say the wire hinders their ability to apprehend individuals crossing the river. Additionally, Abbott thanked border patrol agents for their seizures of drugs and apprehensions of gang members and individuals on the terrorist watch list. Abbott’s stance has garnered support from numerous Republican governors, with several joining him in Shelby Park to praise his methods, including building a border wall, installing wire, and placing buoys in the river. However, the claim that the buoys deter people from crossing has not been substantiated. The standoff between Texas and the federal government began when the Texas National Guard and state troopers took control of Shelby Park, blocking Border Patrol agents from entering. The state has sued the federal government over damage to state property caused by Border Patrol agents cutting the concertina wire. As tensions escalate, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has demanded federal officials be allowed into the park, but Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has stated that Texas will not comply. Meanwhile, a convoy of Americans opposing the Biden administration’s border policies arrived in Eagle Pass, further intensifying the situation.

Every single challenge America faces have dozens of Industry and Professional organizations who could be part of the solution. Your country needs you.
Not everyone can have what it takes to become a member of the US Customs and Border Patrol. Every person hired for a job with CBP must submit to the federal employment background check process to make sure you are reliable, trustworthy, of good conduct and character, and have complete and unswerving loyalty to the United States. You must receive a favorable suitability determination resulting from a completed background investigation. If you fail to obtain a favorably adjudicated background investigation, then you fail to meet a condition of employment or continued employment in the federal service and your employment is terminated. Final determination of your suitability will be determined by CBP's Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR). What Is Included in Background Investigation The background investigation will include credit and criminal history checks, records checks to verify citizenship of members, verification of date of birth, education, employment history, and military history. Interviews of individuals who know the candidate and of any current or former spouse (divorced within the past ten years) will be conducted. Residences will be confirmed, neighbors interviewed, and public records queried for information about bankruptcies, divorces, and criminal or civil litigation. Additional interviews will be conducted, as needed, to resolve any inconsistencies or issues which have developed during the course of the investigation. https://lnkd.in/ge7d2Qn3

The Civil Rights Division of the US Department of Justice (DOJ) has never investigated any of the 83 federal law enforcement agencies for a pattern-or-practice of unconstitutional policing. Instead, DOJ targets city police departments and county sheriff's offices for investigation and then imposes costly and ineffective consent decrees that harm local communities. The DOJ Civil Rights Division oozes with hypocrisy. While DOJ exempts federal law enforcement agencies from rules designed to reduce racial bias, DOJ claims that local law enforcement agencies have run amok and engage in a pattern-or-practice of biased policing. DOJ claims that they have all the answers and that the only solution to the racial bias problem is one of their cure-all consent decrees. Meanwhile the UN Human Rights Committee has found that the United States is not in compliance with the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights citing excessive force and racial profiling by the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Even though the United States is in violation of a human rights treaty that it signed, the DOJ Civil Rights Division has done nothing to curb the abuses of federal law enforcement agencies. Over the last five years uses of force by CBP officers have nearly doubled and CBP is facing many complaints and lawsuits over the use of deadly and less lethal force. Nevertheless, the DOJ Civil Rights Division is unconcerned and is happy to let CBP police itself. The Director of the Southern Border Communities Coalition said, "If the U.S. government doesn’t seem to listen, if the U.S. government is not answering any questions, they are not being honest on their answers. The role of law enforcement is to protect our rights, to protect people, not to attack us; not to endanger lives…The violation of our human dignity should not be something that we normalize.” DOJ has no legal right or moral authority to intervene in local law enforcement and impose the burdens and costs of consent decrees on communities. DOJ needs to get its own house in order first before it tells others what they must do. Perhaps the United Nations should conduct a pattern-or-practice investigation of the DOJ and federal law enforcement agencies. #police #policereform #policemisconduct #policeaccountability #policeofficer #policeofficers #lawenforcement #lawenforcementofficer #policedepartment #policechief #criminaljustice #criminaljusticereform #doj #departmentofjustice #attorneygeneral #civilrights #constitution #constitutionalrights #publicsafety #crimeprevention #federalgovernment #federal #lawsuit #phoenix #phoenixaz #phoenixarizona #arizona #sheriff #bordersecurity #borderpatrol #humanrights #treaty #immigration #cbp #unitednations #un

https://lnkd.in/erc69e3J Federal agents apprehended a record number of criminal noncitizens in fiscal 2023, according to several reports. In fiscal 2023, U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers apprehended nearly 50,000 criminal noncitizens; Customs and Immigration Enforcement and Removal Operation (ERO) agents made 170,590 administrative arrests; and Homeland Security Investigations agents made over 33,000 criminal arrests nationwide. According to CBP data, Office of Field Operations agents at ports of entry arrested 20,166 noncitizens with criminal convictions or those who were wanted by law enforcement in fiscal 2023 nationwide. They also arrested 11,509 individuals who already committed crimes and were in the National Crime Information Center database. The NCIC database tracks crime-related information and is available to federal, state and local law enforcement and other criminal justice agencies. U.S. Border Patrol agents apprehended 15,267 criminal noncitizens and 988 with outstanding wants or warrants in fiscal 2023 between ports of entry, according to the data. Fiscal year to date, the combined OFO and BP numbers total over 16,000, as of Feb. 14 when the data was last updated. CBP’s fiscal 2024 runs Oct. 1, 2023, to Sept. 30, 2024. By comparison, the combined total apprehensions of criminal noncitizens nationwide totaled more than 40,000 in fiscal 2022, more than 28,000 in fiscal 2021, and more than 18,600 in fiscal 2020. “Criminal noncitizens,” CBP explains, refers to non-U.S. citizens “who have been convicted of crime, whether in the United States or abroad, so long as the conviction is for conduct which is deemed criminal by the United States. Criminal noncitizens encountered at ports of entry are inadmissible, absent extenuating circumstances, and represent a subset of total OFO inadmissibles.” Inadmissibles are required under federal law to be processed for deportation. In September 2021, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas implemented a new deportation policy stating that illegal entry itself was no longer a deportable offense despite federal law stating it is, The Center Square reported. Texas and Louisiana sued only to be told by the U.S. Supreme Court they didn’t have standing to sue. In ICE’s fiscal 2023 annual report, it claims ICE ERO agents “nearly doubled immigration enforcement arrests and increased removals for those with no legal basis to remain in the country from the totals cited in last year’s report.” It doesn’t mention that fewer deportations in the previous year have been attributed to injunctions put in place as the lawsuit made its way through the court system. Some have claimed the lawsuit resulted in less deportations.

Information For Stakeholders - Possible CBSA Strike Mediation with the Canada Border Services Agency is expected to begin June 03, 2024 and the Public Interest Commission report is to be released at the same time. The union notes that it will be in a legal strike position seven days after the PIC report is released, and members should be prepared to take job action in June 2024 if a deal isn’t reached. The following is provided by the Canada Border Services Agency PSAC would be in a legal strike position in early June. The border will remain open and safe as 90% of frontline Border Services Officers are essential workers, which means that they will continue to offer essential services in the event of a strike. Our officers will fulfill their duties with the highest level of integrity and professionalism. However, travellers and businesses could experience an increase in border wait times, picketing outside CBSA premises, and wearing of union-related accessories. The CBSA has been actively working to plan for these situations and has developed mitigation strategies to ensure operations will continue. The CBSA will respond quickly to any job action or work disruption in order to maintain the safety and security of our border, ensure compliance with our laws, and keep the border open to facilitate the flow of legitimate goods and travel. #CBSA #strikenegotations #borderservices #travel #transportation #exports -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Members of the Customs and Immigration Union (CIU), which represent CBSA employees including Border Service Officers have voted overwhelmingly in favour of strike action. Mediation with the CBSA is expected to begin June 03, 2024 and the Public Interest Commission report is to be released at the same time.
