The committee bill. while not perfect. makes real and significant progress in many areas. I believe it can be improved upon. It has formalized a new consensus in the Senate. one that did not exist a year ago. on aggressive provisions to protect our borders. including new detection technologies. significant new increases in Border Patrol agents. tough provisions on alien smuggling and. for the first time. a real employer verification enforcement title. As is the right of the chairman. the Judiciary Committee product will be offered as an amendment to the Border Patrol security bill that has been introduced. Moreover. I expect a whole series of amendments which will attempt to tighten the amnesty and temporary worker provisions in the judicial bill.
