Mario Blatto. who was the head of HHS for the State of California. And he recommended an open border between the United States and Mexico. When it was pointed out to him that there was trouble on the southern border of Mexico. in terms of illegal aliens coming from other countries through Mexico. he said. "Well. obviously what we would have to do is help Mexico shore up their border on the south." Now. that is obviously just pushing the problem off and not only in a timeliness sense. but in a geographical sense. And now at this late hour. we have those who oppose any meaningful reform coming forward and telling the Speaker of the House that there is no constituency out there for immigration reform. I have waited in vain for any of those Members to volunteer to serve on the Immigration Subcommittee. I have been on that subcommittee for 5 years. Everyone wants to sit on the outside and they want to criticize and with the Speakers most recent statements. want to cast aspersions on those of us working the problem. but they do not want to solve the problem.
