We passed it 2 days ago. What did it include for my colleagues. who perhaps cannot read or who did not read? It includes $65 million for domestic emergency response programs and training. $30 million improved border security. $10 million counterproliferation. $4 million counterterrorism explosives research. $16 million to replace. sustain and maintain chemical and biologic detection equipment. None of that was requested by the President. All of that was added in by this Congress in a bipartisan manner because we held hearings last year. not after the TWA crash. not after the Saudi Arabia bombing. but all through the last 2 years. because we care about terrorism. not because it is on the front page but because of the importance to protect our citizens.
