Mr. Speaker. I would like to take this opportunity to applaud Congressman DUNCAN HUNTER (RCA) for his ongoing efforts to curb the importation of illegal drugs at our Southwestern border. Last week Congressman HUNTER introduced the Border Protection and Infrastructure Act of 1998. an initiative that provides vital support along specific points of our border with Mexico. This legislation falls in line with our recently launched plan for winning the war on drugs: decreasing demand. stopping supply. increasing accountability. Stopping supply hits close to home in my district. which lies just north of the San Diego border with Mexico. Nearly 70% of the nations illegal drug supply comes across the borders in our region.
