Speaker. on Monday night. President Bush demonstrated his commitment to securing our country. By placing thousands of National Guard troops on our borders. he will help decrease illegal border crossings. stop drug trafficking. and prevent terrorism. As a veteran of the National Guard. I know our troops are well prepared to assist temporarily with this critical mission. In December. the House of Representatives passed legislation to prevent illegal crossings by addressing the hiring of illegals and gaining control of our borders. As the House and Senate now work to find a longterm solution to Americas immigration problem. House Republicans will continue to fight to ensure securing our borders remains the first priority. We will resist any frivolous lawsuits and protect American families.
