Border Patrol to fire up to 5K agents over vaccine mandate

U.S. Border Patrol plans to fire agents who don't receive the COVID-19 vaccine.

According to reports on Friday, the agency is looking to enforce Joe Biden's federal vaccine mandate by the end of November.

Critics have said this would only further complicate the crisis at the southern border, where over 1.5 million illegal immigrants have crossed in 2021 alone.

Arizona Rep. Andy Biggs said he believes as many as 5,000 agents could separate from Border Patrol over the issue.

"Think of how many people, like on the border, Border Patrol. How many of these Border Patrol agents are going to separate? I've been told it could be as many as 5,000," said Biggs.

"And if that many were to leave, as porous as our border already is, you'd truly have a national security crisis along your border."

CBP released the latest numbers for border illegal alien encounters.
