If I wanted to put terrorists into the United States. I would send them to Mexico and they could go across the border easily. We have at least 800.000 aliens. illegal aliens. coming across the Southwest border on a yearly basis. and the suggestion is that for every one that is apprehended. two to three get across. So. the point is that we do not have any real grasp of the situation. As the gentleman said. if we are going to have immigration laws in this country. perhaps we ought to make some attemptsome attempt--to make sure that they are enforced. I suggest that this administration has not done it. and in fact the Iranian situation has only focusedfocusedthe lack of interest this administration has had in enforcing the law in this very. very important area. This is not an area where local governments can pick it up.
