Annual Border Patrol Foundation Recognition Dinner in Washington, D.C., on October 27. The event is held specifically to honor fallen Border Patrol agents and to raise funds.
Current Border Patrol agents are not authorized to speak to the media and cannot be identified by name — in essence precluding them from having their voices publicly heard. Breitbart Texas spoke to Mark A. Morgan, former Chief of the United States Border Patrol and later Acting Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection who said he has also received complaints about the invitation of the Secretary to speak at the event.
While I understand the importance of an organization like the Border Patrol Foundation to refrain from what could be perceived as politics, that concern can often lead to a faulty binary choice. By not inviting Secretary Mayorkas to the dinner is not playing politics, it is simply sending a strong message to the entire Border Patrol family-we hear you.
With Mayorkas at the helm of DHS, the cancellation of swift removals for unaccompanied migrant children and migrant family units with tender age children under the Title 42 COVID-19 authority, Border Patrol agents found themselves processing migrants in overcrowded facilities at a time when the pandemic was in full swing.
Cabrera told the committee, “Morale is significantly down, our agents are frustrated that we’re babysitters,” a common complaint of Border Patrol agents relegated to process and provide humanitarian care for the thousands of migrants entering the United States daily, a total that includes hundreds of unaccompanied toddlers and infants.
Founded in 2009, the Border Patrol Foundation is a 5013 organization incorporated in the State of Arizona. The organization has traditionally invited DHS leadership to address the annual recognition dinner. Mayorkas has addressed attendees to the event via video conferencing but will make his first in-person appearance as guest speaker this year.
