Did they come to Congress to get blanket authority and a permanent easement to enter land 25 miles from the border in order to patrol that area? Of course not. because they did not need It. they have that authority. The immigration authorities have that same authority now. but they cannot abuse it. they cannot go out miles from the border without any possible recourse to any person for abuses or indiscretions that may be involved in searching over a distance of 25 miles from the border. They must be reasonable about it. and they must not abuse that right. The question was raised about the authority of the patrolmen to go up and down the border under the footandmouthdisease program. under the quarantine.
