Border Patrol agents have pivoted back to their national security mission following the White House's success in getting illegal immigration levels down to historic lows.

At the height of former President Joe Biden ’s border crisis, agents were pulled from the border to drive vans full of immigrants back and forth to stations for processing, watch over rooms of people in holding cells, and make baby formula for unaccompanied infants.

Border Patrol chief Mike Banks detailed to the Washington Examiner in an exclusive interview how the agents' mission has shifted with the decline in illegal border crossings.

Border Patrol chief: "We're seeing prosecutions at a rate we've never seen before" The Justice Department and Border Patrol are working together at a greater rate to prosecute illegal immigrants, smugglers, and drug traffickers.

In February , Border Patrol nationwide seized 45 pounds of heroin, the most interdicted in a month since May 2022 .
