Madam Speaker. we are going to be brief. We just wanted to make a few more points here before we wrapped things up. One of the issues that is a major issue for the country. for the Congress. for the American people. for people living on border states. is Customs and border protection. We sat here many nights. Mr. MEEK and I. and listened to our friends come on the other side and give 5minute speeches. 1hour speeches. on the issue of immigration. on the major threat to the United States of America of illegal immigrants coming over our border. In this homeland security bill that our Republican friends filibustered today and yesterday. there is $8.8 billion for Customs and border protection. $1 billion is provided for border security fencing and tactical infrastructure. along with 3.000 additional Border Patrol agents being funded. Now. we have a bill that they agree with. I mean. you want to talk about the Potomac TwoStep.
