The underlying bill allocates about $57 million for tactical infrastructure in Arizona and about $30 million for San Diego. However. the El Paso Sector. which includes the entire State of New Mexico. is only provided about $7.5 million. The additional $90 million under this amendment will help ensure that New Mexico receives the resources that it needs. The amendment would also prove $30 million for ICE to purchase 800 vehicles. including buses and vans. used to transport undocumented immigrants. And USCIS is allocated $38 million to enhance fraud detection systems. These additional resources are greatly needed and I urge my colleagues to support this important measure.
