Mr. Speaker. Members of Congress are looking for border security answers. and the American people are demanding them. But it seems we are being stonewalled by our own Border Patrol hierarchy. Get this. apparently our Border Patrol agents cannot talk or answer questions from Members of Congress without filing a lengthy detailed report. the same type of report they file when they arrest illegals. drug runners. or are even shot at by the Mexican military. This appears to intimidate our Border Patrol agents to not say a word about what is really going on. September 27. 2006 CONGRE When I have been on the border. the Border Patrol agents were very reluctant to say anything except scripted answers. Now I know why. What does the Border Patrol hierarchy have to hide? Apparently the truth because that is all we are after. Why wouldnt homeland security want their agents talking to Members of Congress?
