The truth is. to anyone who has watched this over time. very often our Democratic colleagues. with all due respect. block the very thing they blame Republicans forin this case. blaming the President. Not only did Senator BOXER vote to filibuster the PATRIOT Act. but after the 9/11 attacks. Senator BOXER was one of four Democratic cosponsors of a bill that would have specifically permitted noncitizens to serve as airport security screeners. Senator BOXER cosponsored legislation to allow noncitizens to do for air travel what essentially the Coast Guard does for port security. Now she wants to block foreign companies from using American workers to manage our port terminals. It is difficult to reconcile the two positions.
