The Congress and the President have made a commitment to significantly increase our capacity to protect our borders. We recognize that there is a porousness among our borders. and we have stepped up. in an attempt to try to address that. by dramatically expanding the resources we are putting on the borders and dramatically expanding the support facilities for those border agents who are there. There are other issues that we still need to address: Specifically. our computer capability as to how we track legal people who come into the country and our capacity to have the various computer systems which are able to track peoplethe FBI system at IAFIS and the USVISIT system set up by Customs and Immigrationbe able to communicate in a way which makes it possible for us to identify somebody coming into this country who might have a criminal record or for purposes which we believe could harm our Nation or individuals in our Nation. There is a long way to go in that area. We intend to continue to focus a great deal of energy and resources on that also.
