Mr. Speaker. the gentlewoman is so right. Again. we have Iraqis who have been apprehended trying to infiltrate our southern border. We know there are contacts between al Qaeda and human smugglers in Mexico. We know what was once a trickle of illegal entry is now a flood of illegal entry. What was once mainly lowincome. poor Mexicans is almost a United Nations of illegal entry coming from all parts of the globe and planet. We ignore border control at our own peril. Why. Mr. Speaker. would Senators REID and KENNEDY essentially say we are not willing to help you secure the border unless you grant amnesty to millions and millions of those who have come here illegal?
