A constituent of mine actually sent me this brick in the mail. On this brick it says. "Since the U.S. Government seems to be struggling with the illegal immigration problem. I thought I would send you the means to begin solving the problem. This brick is sent to support stronger border security." Mr. Speaker. the American people are demanding action. Last December. this House passed a very good border security bill that would in fact put this brick to very good use in building a security fence on our southern border. The debate in the other body is now turning toward amnesty for those who have come here illegally. and that is the wrong direction for America. We cannot offer amnesty or expanded opportunities for guest workers until we deal with the problem at hand. I urge the U.S. Senate to listen to the people. to look at the bill that was passed by this House in December and. as this brick says. support stronger border security.
