Crenshaw proposes deployment bonus for agents serving at high-trafficked border areas

House of Representatives member Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas) has introduced legislation proposing a $6,500 “deployment bonus” for agents serving along high-trafficked areas of the U.S. border. The proposal, entitled The Customs and Border Protection Crisis Hardship and Incentive Pay Act of 2022, would provide agents with a $250 bonus per pay period for serving along a border where more than 1,000 migrants are encountered each day, securing the border in sectors where they are subjected to the threat of physical harm or imminent danger from cartels, and being in a sector where fentanyl is encountered. Crenshaw has criticized the Biden administration’s handling of the border, calling it “negligent and apathetic”.
