The Republican majority found it fit to kind of put in a resolution about some things that they thought that they accomplished as it relates to making America safer. Some of that I join with them on as an American and as a Member of Congress. but a lot of it has not been achieved. [] 2200 We have the 9/11 Commission Report that came out that said that we have to not only inspect 100 percent of cargo containers that are on ships and 100 percent of those cargo containers that go in the bellies of airplanes that are flying throughout the United States of America. it is still not accomplished today. We still have a dismal amount of Border Patrol officers to protect American borders. Democrats. we have asked for 2.000 Border Patrol officers. the Presidents budget request to this Congress was only 215 or 216 Border Patrol officers. Now. the Republican majority can come to the floor night after night. day after day. do 5minute speeches. 1minute speeches. or take a special order and talk a good game. But I used to be a football player.
