A number of Members said they were for fencing. a number of Members said they were against fencing. I argued that good fences make good neighbors. It clarifies where property lines are. what your rights are. and neighbors can get along pretty well. Leave them ambiguous. and people get in fusses. At any rate. when we voted. the vote was 83 to 16 to approve my amendment mandating construction of this fence. That was part of the overall immigration bill. That immigration bill was fatally flawed. The truth is. it is not going to become law. We can all be thankful for that.
