They deserve our support and have earned our respect. This was not an easy bill to conference. But. the agreement does contain program increases over last years levels for important law enforcement activities. This conference report includes $1.5 billion for the U.S. Customs Service. matching the Presidents request and allowing Customs to hire additional agents to detect and control the flow of illegal international trafficking in arms. ammunition. and narcotics. Each year the Customs Service is the primary border enforcement agency and a major revenue producer. For every $1 expended. the Customs Service returns $15 to the Treasury Department. It is money well spent.
