Bill overview
The Keeping Our Agents on the Line Act aims to limit the role of U.S. Border Patrol agents by restoring their focus to border security duties. It specifically restricts their authority to operate more than 25 miles inland from the U.S. border, addressing concerns about agents making arrests of U.S. citizens and lacking adequate training for criminal investigations. The bill also requires increased data collection and reporting on Border Patrol checkpoints and arrests to improve transparency and accountability.
