While much of our Nations attention is rightfully focused on hostilities abroad. I am pleased that the House is working to uphold the other half of its responsibility to protect the American people. namely. the prevention of dangers here at home. It is widely acknowledged that issue one of illegal immigration must be addressed on two major fronts. the first of which being the prevention of illegal entry into the United States. and the second. concentrating on finding. documenting and in most cases deporting illegals already within our borders. The bill before us addresses both of these contentious points. It appears that protecting our borders has drawn the ire of some. including our neighbors to the south. who have called our effort today "disgraceful and shameful" and question whether the economic prosperity of our country will be adversely affected by our actions.
