According to the administrations latest National Intelligence Estimate: We judge the U.S. homeland will face a persistent and evolving terrorist threat over the next three years. The main threat comes from Islamic terrorist groups and cells. especially alQaida. driven by their undiminished intent to attack the United States. Yet the President threatens to veto the Homeland Security bill that passed the Senate 89 to 4 because it Is $2.2 billion above his request. with increases for first responder grants. for border security. and for enforcing our immigration laws. The Presidentour Presidentis determined to veto 8 of our 12 appropriations bills over $22 billion. Some have argued that $22 billion is not a lot of money.
