EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) — The head of the Border Patrol’s El Paso Sector recently described the crime of assaulting a federal agent as “an affront to our principles of justice and the safety of our nation.”

In an Aug. 9 news release, border officials here said they were seeing a “significant rise in attacks” from an influx of smugglers and migrants crossing the border illegally.

The latest data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection shows that along the southern border, 324 Border Patrol agents were assaulted through August of Fiscal Year 2024, which ended on Sept. 30.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
