UPDATED LETTER (April 4th, 2013)
While
it appears as though Congress appropriated sufficient funds to pay the
salaries of Border Patrol agents within the current Continuing
Resolution (CR), CBP has yet to make a decision on the spending plan.
Consequently, the proposed plans and indecision have unnecessarily
caused Border Patrol agents and their families to worry about their
safety at work and the uncertainty of their financial stability. Please take
action to prevent CBP from reducing the numbers and pay of Border
Patrol agents who risk their lives daily to patrol our borders and keep
our nation safe.
National Border Patrol Council responds to Obama Administration Naming Advocate for Illegal Aliens
Wednesday, 08 February 2012
February 8, 2012 – The Obama administration took its next step towards amnesty for illegal aliens by naming an advocate for illegal aliens and those concerned about immigration issues. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said the advocate will "serve as a point of contact for individuals, including those in immigration proceedings, NGOs and other community and advocacy groups, who have concerns, questions, recommendations or other issues they would like to raise."

National Border Patrol Council Rebuttal to AP Analysis of Border Patrol OT
February 6, 2012 – On Sunday, millions watched the New York Giants and the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLVI. Some watched their teams and hoped for victory, while others watched because they enjoy football and to see which team's strategy leads them to victory. Football fans understand that neither the Giants nor the Patriots would have made it to the Super Bowl if the teams decided to play less defensive players against teams that were less of a threat. Fans also know that the Giants would have lost the game if they decided to take the entire defensive line out of the game in the last minute in an effort to save money because they were winning. This same concept applies to the United States border and may help clear up any confusion for those who read the recent Associated Press article written by reporter Alicia A. Caldwell, titled "AP Analysis: Border Patrol OT up as arrests drop."
NBPC Issues Release Regarding USAG Holder's Testimony Before the House Oversight Committee
Friday, 03 February 2012
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
February 3, 2012 – On February 2, 2012, Attorney General Eric Holder appeared and gave testimony before the House Oversight Committee regarding the murder of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry and the ill conceived Operation Fast and Furious. Several times during his testimony he was asked questions to which he would give dismissive answers or attribute the questions to political pandering or election year charades. This was nothing new for a man who has refused to accept responsibility for this fiasco and has not disciplined any of the high-ranking officials who were involved with the approval of this operation. Instead, the ATF retaliated against whistleblowers that helped expose the dangerous operation.

VLC Course (Management): How to Slowly Destroy a Man
Tuesday, 31 January 2012
Welcome current and future Border Patrol managers. This course is a case study on how to slowly destroy a man and will help you deal with agents who question your poor decisions. By the end of this course, you will know how to bring those agents in line or force them out of a job. You will also understand that there are some occasional side effects, such as: drop in morale; drop in operational effectiveness; and an occasional death. Actually, it isn’t too occasional since there have been three in Detroit in just over two years and many more in other Border Patrol sectors. However, do not be concerned, the Border Patrol is still hiring so they are easily replaced. Also, a drop in operational effectiveness is useful in misleading Congress and the public, which makes that next promotion more likely. As for morale, don’t be concerned. Morale has never been a priority in the Border Patrol and is becoming even less of a priority with our new management philosophy.
