Mr. Chairman. remember at the height of Katrina. that tragedy. and we heard the words. "Good job. Brownie." Well. we have someone equally qualified now in charge of the immigration function in the Homeland Security Department. and I think it is that level of competence that has led us to the problem that we face today. and that is that we have basically dropped the ball. the administration has dropped the ball at the border. They have permitted thousands. tens of thousands. of individuals to promise to appear and then simply to escape into the country. This bill does not direct the administration to go find them and deport them or have their matter be heard.
