Border Security Act: More Funds for Inspections and Border Wall

This act reallocates funds from the IRS enforcement account to enhance border security. This means more money for advanced scanning technology for vehicles and the construction of a border wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. Additionally, the act introduces bonuses for border patrol agents and modifies procedures for individuals crossing the border.
Key points
Fund Reallocation: Money originally for IRS enforcement will now be used for border security.
Enhanced Inspections: Increased funding for modern scanners to achieve 100% vehicle scanning at all land ports of entry by 2034.
Border Wall Construction: Two-thirds of the reallocated funds will go towards building a border wall system along the southwest border.
Agent Bonuses: Introduction of recruitment, retention, and relocation bonuses for U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents.
Border Procedures Changes: Individuals arriving from contiguous territories may be returned or detained pending asylum application review.
