News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

The U.S. Border Patrol is expediting its application process in an attempt to meet President Bush's goal of hiring 6,000 new agents by the end of 2008.

At an job fair Feb. 24, applicants may take a four-hour written test and receive a tentative, on-the-spot job offer if they pass. They would still have to pass a background check, drug test, medical and fitness exam and interview.

Last summer, the Border Patrol allocated 50 full-time recruiters nationwide to meet the president's goal, which he announced in May.
