Mr. President. thank you. First of all. I appreciate the explanation of the chairman of the subcommittee and conclude. as he has. unfortunately. that. good policy notwithstanding. taking money away from other good policy decisions we have made or intend to make in support of funding for more Border Patrol agents. more detention spaces. and so on. requires that we oppose the amendment that would take money from those programs to build more fencing. Much of this fencing is in my State of Arizona. We need that fencing. I am convinced we will be able to get the fencing done. if not by the National Guard. then by construction that will. in fact. cost money. for which there is some in the budget.
