OPS has obligated 63 percent of fiscal year 2007s funding and 99.9 percent of fiscal year 2006 carryover funding. So lets just be real about this bill. if you are serious about intelligence. why are we cutting it by $8 million over last years budget. $23 million over the suggested administrations budget? This is what it does: It will reduce our ability to deploy personnel to the southwest and northern borders to support border enforcement efforts. It will reduce our ability to identify and assess threats to the security of the Nations land. air. and sea borders. It will reduce our ability to analyze the threat of homegrown terrorism and domestic terrorism.
