On behalf of the National Border Patrol Council and National Homeland Security Council of AFGE, Hart Research conducted a telephone survey from membership lists of Border Patrol agents and CBP (Customs and Border Protection) inspectors from July 30 to August 7, 2004. The survey was conducted among 500 front-line border protection personnel, with 250 interviews each among Border Patrol agents and CBP inspectors. The survey was designed to explore attitudes among this critical group of homeland security personnel on issues relating to their job, how it has changed since September 11th, and their views about strategies that have been employed to make our borders safer.
