Senator REID. has offered this amendment. an amendment which provides the resources for the border. He says it is an emergency. it should be treated as such. I couldnt agree with him more. But listen to the other side of the aisle. Senator GREGG on the Republican side said we can only pay for border security at the expense of soldiers in the field. He takes the roughly $2 billion out of the military account to make our borders stronger. That is not fair to the soldiers. It is not fair to the men and women who are risking their lives every day in Iraq and Afghanistan.
