The people who say that. I believe have not traveled the border to the extent I have. There is no way you can put enough border patrolmen on the U.S. borders to stop people from coming into the United States. I can take you and fly you over ranches in south Texas and I can show you paths across those ranches coming from the border and those are not paths made by cattle. those are paths made by people. moving across this country and moving into the interior of our country. We have more illegal immigrants into this country than any other nation in the world. The estimate is 5.6 million. I do not know how that number is calculated. The very nature of the problem makes it very difficult to define but we know it is millions and millions of people and we know we have lost control of our borders. One of the primary requirements of a country is to have integrity of its borders and we have lost that. We have the most generous quotas on immigration of any nation in the world and it is time that we stay within those quotas. This is the third time that Senator SIMPSONS bill has been before us. I know that there are a variety of interests opposing this bill. each of them with what they consider a legitimate concern. But what we have to look at is the whole picture. the overall benefit immigration control provides to our Nation. Onefourth of this world goes to bed hungry every night. Another fourth suffers from malnutrition.
