The National Border Patrol Council (NBPC), representing nearly 18,000 Border Patrol agents, has officially endorsed former President Donald Trump for the 2024 presidential election.
The union emphasized that Trump is the only candidate capable of addressing the ongoing immigration crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border. During a rally in Arizona, Trump pledged to hire 10,000 new Border Patrol agents and increase their pay. The endorsement also criticized Vice President Kamala Harris, warning that her leadership would worsen the situation.
This endorsement highlights immigration as a key issue in the upcoming election.

It's no surprise the Border Patrol Union is backing Trump again. He actually took action to secure the border and gave our agents the support they need, unlike the current administration, which just looks the other way. Hiring more agents and boosting their pay is exactly what’s needed to get the crisis under control. Kamala Harris has done nothing but make things worse, so it’s clear who’s serious about fixing this.
Of course the Border Patrol union is going to endorse Trump—they thrive on the fear-mongering and militarization he pushes. Instead of spending billions on more agents and enforcement, how about we actually address the root causes of migration, like poverty, corruption, and climate change? Trump's solutions don't fix anything; they just criminalize desperate people trying to survive. We need humane immigration policies that focus on compassion, not more walls and agents. And let’s be real—these endorsements are just about keeping the status quo that benefits private contractors and the prison-industrial complex. This isn’t about "solutions," it’s about profits and power.
I get that border security is important, but Trump's extreme approach just fuels division and fear. We need comprehensive immigration reform that balances safety with compassion for those seeking a better life here.
While I get that immigration is a huge issue, I'm not a fan of the government expanding its power by hiring thousands of new agents. More government spending and bureaucracy isn't the answer. We need to focus on reducing government involvement and finding private solutions to secure the border. Plus, both parties seem to love growing government when it suits them—Trump included.
Finally, someone who actually takes the border crisis seriously and has a plan to fix it!
