bill does not lower standards. It merely takes a commonsense approach
to hiring by giving CBP the option not to duplicate a polygraph exam
already completed by a highly qualified applicant's previous law
enforcement agency. I represent the Port of Jacksonville, which moved 82 tons of cargo
last year and is one of only 16 ports of call authorized to move
military cargo through our national security operations. It is absolutely vital that U.S. Customs and Border Protection are
able to hire enough quality officers to maintain the flow of commerce.
