Bill overview
This bill, the Border Workforce Efficiency Act, allows U.S. Customs and Border Protection to hire and train Border Patrol Processing Coordinators. These coordinators would primarily handle administrative tasks like processing individuals apprehended at the border, transporting detained individuals, and performing custodial watch duties. Importantly, they are not authorized to make arrests or conduct asylum interviews, aiming to improve border security efficiency by freeing up Border Patrol agents for other duties.
