It cannot be overstated how crucial the need is for America to have secure borders. and this bill is a step in that direction. For too long we have seen the effects of a porous border. An estimated eight to twelve million undocumented aliens are here illegally in the United States. Last year alone. over a million illegal aliens were apprehended at the border. but the Border Patrol estimates that many more have crossed undetected. In addition. there is evidence to support that Al Qaeda would like to exploit our South West Border. We cannot let this happen I urge my colleagues to pass this legislation which is vital to the security of our borders and our Nation.
