The Biden administration is removing the current head of the U.S. Border Patrol Rodney Scott to appoint deputy chief Raul Ortiz as the new Chief for the federal agency that oversees the nation’s southern border safety and security.

Scott said he received a letter known as the “3R” letter that gives veteran government employees the option to retire, resign, or relocate to a different job within the Department of Homeland Security.
