Senate Confirms Rodney Scott as Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection

The U.S. Senate has officially confirmed Rodney Scott as the new Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), marking a major shift in leadership at the nation’s largest law enforcement agency. The confirmation came following a 51–46 vote that fell strictly along party lines, with Republicans uniting in support and Democrats opposing the nomination.

Scott’s appointment brings a seasoned Border Patrol veteran back to the forefront of federal immigration enforcement — and signals that the federal government may take a harder line on border security under his leadership.

A Veteran of Border Security
Rodney Scott is no stranger to CBP or the challenges it faces. He previously served as Chief of the U.S. Border Patrol, overseeing thousands of agents responsible for securing the nation’s southern and northern borders. With more than three decades of experience in border operations, Scott’s background is steeped in frontline law enforcement, strategic operations, and immigration policy.

CBP, which operates under the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), employs roughly 65,000 personnel, making it one of the largest law enforcement agencies in the federal government. The organization is divided into two primary divisions:

The U.S. Border Patrol, which monitors and secures areas between official ports of entry, and
The Office of Field Operations (OFO), which handles inspections and enforcement at ports of entry including airports, seaports, and land crossings.
