The U.S. Border Patrol is looking for you — to work for them.
The Border Patrol will be recruiting Saturday at the Hyatt Regency Downtown as part of a national effort to hire 6,000 agents by the end of next year.
“Border security affects everybody,” said Lloyd Easterling, a supervisory agent based in Washington, D.C. “This is an opportunity for us to go out and find people interested in law-enforcement work.”
But a local Latino leader thinks the agency is here because it wants to recruit Midwesterners who are frightened by immigration and eager to halt Latinos at the U.S.-Mexican border.”*
