Customs and Border Protection careers

More than 69,000 people work for U.S. Customs and Border Protection, which makes it the largest federal law enforcement agency in the Department of Homeland Security. It was the country's first unified border entity, folding customs, immigration, border security, and agricultural protection into one organization. The mission it states runs to one line, protect the American people, safeguard the borders, and enhance the nation's economic prosperity, and it lists its priorities as countering terrorism, combating transnational crime, securing the border, protecting revenue, and facilitating lawful trade and travel.
