‘America, I have a message for you…’: Border Patrol Union endorses Trump over ‘Border czar’ Harris

The official union of the US Border Patrol announced its full support of former President Donald Trump during a rally in Prescott Valley, Arizona. During the rally, on October 13, Donald Trump pledged to hire 10,000 additional border patrol agents if reelected. Trump promised to request congressional approval for a 10% pay raise for border patrol agents and a $10,000 signing and retention bonus. Currently, the U.S. has around 20,000 border patrol officers. Trump is locked in a tight race with Vice President Kamala Harris in the Nov 5 Presidential elections. Trump is viewed by many voters as the best candidate to tackle illegal immigration, which remains a top voter issue.
