So as I support this legislation. I hope we will not forget some of the other principles involved. that of responsibility. as well as liberty. And one of the great responsibilities of this House is to get on with doing the work that we are required to do in terms of immigration policy. I might just mention that I have just received word that we have broken the record once again in the San Diego sector of California. We set a new record for apprehensions in May. So the 6month record we have set before. in which we have apprehended successfully 270.000 people in a 66mile sector of our border. that is. the 66 miles that really stretches from San Diego inland. of 270.000 people in the last 6 months. I will soon be able to report a new 6month record. And so as we are on the Fourth of July celebrating the process which we should all be proud of. we should also perhaps hang or heads in shame that this House of Representatives refuses to do the work that it should do in terms of getting immigration under control.
