The amendment would severely reduce funds for the Federal Maritime Commission and the Surface Transportation Board. resulting in RIFs for both of these agencies. and cutting the Federal Buildings Fund by $560 million will leave the fund without the resources it needs to build critical. secure crossings on our Southern border with Mexico. Mr. Chairman. it would not strengthen the Federal buildings against threatening terrorism attacks. Let me repeat this. Vote for this amendment and you are voting against building border crossings on the U.S.-Mexico border and against funding to secure the Federal buildings against terrorism. Let me go a little further and explain that these cuts would completely eliminate GSAs new construction of six border stations at the crossing at McAllen. Texas. at El Paso.
