Madam Speaker. I thank the gentleman for yielding me this time. The border security bill that was passed by the House of Representatives is being criticized by the Democrats. But our hearings were not condemned by the media. Far from it. because at our hearings we heard from the border agents. the sheriffs. the investigators. the men and women whose task it is to enforce border security. They called for the border fence that the Democrats opposed. Now the Democrats are referring to their motion to recommit our bill. H.R. 4437. Well. their motion would have gutted this critical immigration enforcement bill. If the Democrat motion had passed. there would have been no provision to crack down on violent alien gang members. There would have been no provision to allow for the detention of dangerous aliens.
