IMMIGRATION ISSUES THAT MAY AFFECT BUS PASSENGERS
During your journey, federal agents from United States Customs and Border Protection might board the bus and ask passengers questions about their immigration or citizenship status. Under Jefferson Lines policy, neither Jefferson Lines drivers nor its other employees will provide consent to warrantless immigration enforcement checks of its buses. However, Jefferson Lines’ employees will not physically resist or otherwise prevent federal agents from boarding our buses should they do so even without our consent. This policy has been implemented for the safety of Jefferson Lines passengers and employees.
