I yield myself 30 seconds. Mr. Chairman. there have been some comments made about meeting our obligation to fight the illegal alien problem. and I would say in this bill. with the chairmans leadership. we have provided resources to do Just that. We have provided resources under the INS for illegal alien problems: 700 new Border Patrol agents. 400 new inspectors. 945 new detention personnel. and 750 new investigators. and that is very robustly funded to the tune of about a halfbillion dollars in the crime trust fund. We have provided $500 million in this bill for reimbursement to States for incarceration of illegal aliens. There is only $30 million out of that to spread around the country.
