And that was voted down along party lines all the Democrats voted for an open process. the Republicans as usual stuck together and voted to shut this process down. That is objectionable. This is so important. we should be able to. it should be open to amendments to any Member. You know. again. I would say to the gentleman from Georgia. Democrats. if you would follow our lead and you had adopted the amendments that we proposed over the last 5 years. there would be 6.600 more Border Patrol agents. there would be 14.000 more detention beds. and 2.700 more immigration enforcement agents along our border than now exist. That. to me. would have been a positive accomplishment. But you rejected all that time and time again.
