We are all concerned about the attacks on our various neighborhoods. This is a bad idea from my personal experience because I spent 261/2 years patrolling the border. The gentleman from Ohio makes mention that we have got about 9.000 Border Patrol agents patrolling our borders. I should remind my colleagues that we have a plan that will increase the number of Border Patrol agents by 1.000 agents per year until 2001. at which time we will reevaluate the effectiveness of that increase. I think tonight it is important that my colleagues realize that this proposal does not restrict the utilization of the military to our southern border. I think it is important that if you are one of my colleagues from Idaho. you should worry about this proposal.
