President. the Southwest border continues to be the No. 1 transit area for the cocaine coming into the United States. All intelligence reports that I have seen indicate that this trend is continuing and drug traffickers are using every means available to escape law enforcement efforts. The 2.000mile stretch along the United StatesMexico border is one of the most difficult to patrol. Wide open spaces between ports of entry have made it virtually impossible for the Border Patrol and other Federal. State. and local law enforcement officers to apprehend drug traffickers. To make this Job a little easier. the Customs Service is providing helicopter support to Federal.
