Madam Speaker. I yield myself the balance of my time to just say in conclusion that this bill clearly is an improvement over similar legislation which passed the House on the Suspension Calendar last year. but there is no escaping the fact that the net effect of the bill is to further relax border security on the Great Lakes. While I understand that the current system may be inconvenient to Great Lakes boaters. I do not believe that such inconvenience justifies any further relaxation of the border along the Great Lakes. especially at a time when the Congress and this administration have increased efforts to secure all of Americas borders against illegal immigration and drug smuggling. Madam Speaker. I yield back the balance of my time.
