There is an intolerable potential costthe health of the citizens in the border area. So Federal support will mean badly needed improvement in the border States abilities to respond to the health and environmental risks facing all citizens. I urge my colleagues to support this important legislation that is critical to the health of citizens not only along the southern border but also across the United States. The health and environmental problems along the border do not check with customs or immigration before crossing the border. The Southwest Border Health Laboratory is an essential component in battling these risks before they have a chance to spread beyond the border.* By Mr. EXON:
