Mr. Speaker. I thank the gentleman for yielding me this time. and I rise in strong opposition to this rule and the underlying bill. H.R. 4437. This is not a theoretical exercise for me. No congressional district in the United States suffers more from the degradations of illegal immigration than mine. For years now. we have had the largest number of apprehensions in the country. In fact. more people cross the border illegally in the borderpatrolled Tucson sector than all. all of the other border States combined. The strain on law enforcement. on education. on health care. and on social services is severe.
