I rise today in strong support of this rule and the underlying bill. H.R. 6061. the Secure Fence Act of 2006. This legislation. much of which has already been passed by the House as part of H.R. 4437. the Border Protection. Antiterrorism. and Illegal Control Act of 2005. is a positive step in regaining operational control of our borders and achieving broad reform of the immigration process. This legislation is the product of five formal hearings in standing committees during this Congress alone. It also draws on a number of hearings in past Congresses and a wealth of information learned through field hearings conducted over the August recess by Members of this Republican majority.
