Speech #990259638

This bill provides a solid plan of attack against the airborne and marine drug smuggler. Harsh penalties are instituted for individuals who transport drugs in planes. or vehicles across State lines. Foreign citizens who have residency status in America could be deported or excluded from this Nation for dealing in drugs or for being convicted of a drugrelated crime. It does not call for troops along the border. but extends a muchneeded and longoverdue helping hand to our law enforcement officials. The plan incorporated in this bill will finally give our underequipped civilian drug enforcement agencies the drug detection capability. and the legal means they need to halt the narcotics trafficker from penetrating our borders.
