The decision to cut funding for chemical security is an astonishing abdication of Congresss responsibility to keep our families safe. And just while New York City at this very moment has heightened transit security because of a critical threat of bombing on the subway system. this bill woefully underfunds transit security. While my colleagues focus on undocumented immigration in this homeland security bill. they allow the Nation to be unprotected from attacks on our chemical plants. transit systems. ports and the ability of our first responders to respond. That is a Federal Government that is failing to secure its people.
