Agents Spread Christmas Cheer to Children in Border Communities
Border Patrol agents spread Christmas cheer in communities along the southwest and northern borders in the days leading up to the holiday weekend. While most American families gathered to celebrate the birth of Christ, Border Patrol agents continued their vigilance to protect our nation’s borders.
Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz tweeted photos of Border Patrol agents delivering Christmas presents in the communities where they serve our nation’s border security mission. The photos show agents from the Swanton Sector along the Canadian border to the Falfurrias Sation near the Texas border with Mexico.
