Speech #1090138994

But this bill authorizes billions of new spending for homeland security and judiciary resources. I was informed that every State needs new judges. But not every State has thousands of immigration cases filed each year. I am disheartened that the Senate did not act on amendment 4022. I am disappointed that my colleagues were unwilling to address the judicial crisis along the Southwest border. I am dismayed that this body is turning a blind eye towards the need of our U.S. district courts. As a result of such action. my State. and other States on the southwest border. will not be able to enforce the border security and immigration enforcement provisions in the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act because we will not have the necessary resources to prosecute immigration cases. Mr. President.
