Mr. Chairman. I hope that we will be able to join with the gentleman on his purpose to vet and to ensure that those who are receiving immigration benefits are vetted and screened properly and that any allegations of fraud be investigated. I do not think anyone has come to this floor to divide on the question of ensuring that the homeland is protected. That means that we are screening more carefully the visas as individuals are requesting to come into the country. We have implemented a number of new efforts to ensure that we are in fact keeping terrorists away from the United States. But. again. the concerns that I have are clearly that the resources are not there in order to do the vetting that the gentleman is speaking of.
