But it is a step in the right direction. and it moves this issue forward. What I am most particularly interested in is the committees acceptance of a provision that Congressman NORWOOD and I brought to the first responders bill that would allow States to use homeland security funds. State police. local police and so forth. to round up illegal immigrants and deliver them to the Feds. In New Hampshire. we spent over $650.000 in State police funds last year doing Federal duties and $200.000 from the Marine Patrol on the sea coast. I think this is a provision that adds flexibility to a bill that needs to be passed in this Congress. Mr. Chairman. my constituents and constituents all over the country are crying out for a just law to end this process of having undocumented illegal aliens working and flaunting the law.
