Speech #1090179167

I take issue with your conscious decision to block the House from considering proposals which would have. without a doubt. made my constituents and the American people safer. Moreover. the rule this past spring prohibited the ranking Democratic member of the Homeland Security Committee. an expert in this field. BENNIE THOMPSON. from making constructive changes to the bill. Ranking Member THOMPSONS changes address the fact that we cannot continue asking Customs officials to do more with less. His amendment authorized funding for U.S. Customs and Border Patrol to hire 1.600 more officers at seaports. Mr. Speaker. as I previously mentioned.
