When we earlier this year. just a couple of months ago. were debating the Commerce. State. Justice appropriations bill. California Democrats and Republicans stood up to talk about the need to increase the Border Patrol. This House voted to transfer $60 million that is going to be expended for increasing the Border Patrol. I supported that. I support toughening up our border patrol. But. Madam Speaker. it seems to me we have to get to the root. the root of the problem of illegal immigration. Now. I ask rhetorically over and over and over again. why is it that someone in Mexico flees Mexico and comes to the United States?
