Laredo, Texas (KGNS) – An additional funding for the US border patrol is envisaged to expand the agency’s workforce, upgrading last year’s federal distribution for 22,000 new agents.
The head of the Border Patrol Sector Laredo, Jesse Munoz, explains that the funds continue to be needed to hire the required amount of agents on the terrain.
However, the hiring process is long and difficult, with the largest obstacle being the polygraph test, Munoz adds that very good candidates are sometimes lost during a polygraph.
He says the changes can come to this section in the hiring process, probably makes it more extensive and less extensive. “We want to be sure that we are still doing the right thing and not letting people into a border patrol that should not be agents. We just really want to look at it and see if it really has to be what it is right now. “
Munoz suggests that the shortened Plygraph would become less questions. It remains to be seen at this time what or whether adjustments will be made in the new administration.
