At the same time. in that bill we made provisions for many.. many more positions. I am not worried about the future 2 or 3 years down the line. I think the Congress will make. adequate provisions in any type of immigration reform bill that is passed. But I. am worried about the Customs Service and I am worried about the Immigration personnel at this time. this year and next year because I have three inadequately manned international bridges in my district. And every single year:I have had to go through this exercise to make sure that. we get enough authorization. over appropriations. to properly man those bridges. For some reason or other. we have not been able to do it even though we have received guarantees on this floor that what we have providedfor in the bill will guarantee the fact that there Will be adequate personnel handling the people coming back into this- country from Mexico.
