In a significant move for the region, Congressman Riley M. Moore has introduced legislation aimed at transferring land between U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and the National Park Service (NPS) to facilitate the expansion of the Advanced Training Center in Harpers Ferry. This expansion is crucial as it will enhance training for federal agents, addressing the urgent need following the authorization of 18,000 new Border Patrol agents. Local leaders, including Representatives Carol D. Miller, Mark Amodei, and Mike Simpson, are supporting the initiative, emphasizing how this development will bolster national security and provide opportunities within the community. Supported by both the Biden and Trump administrations, the long-needed expansion will ultimately strengthen the capabilities of agents serving in areas vital to the safety and integrity of the nation.
