We would implement their recommendations and fund them. This is a really interesting fact. Mr. MEEK. If Democratic amendments. like that which we detailed in the last hour had been adopted. there would actually be 6.600 more Border Patrol agents. 14.000 more detention beds. and 2.700 more immigration enforcement agents along our borders than now exists. We only check 6 percent of the containers that come through our ports. Most air cargo that goes in the belly of our passenger airplanes is still not being screened. and there is still not a unified terror watch list for screening airline passengers.
