For the past 2 weeks. we have been debating the Department of Defense authorization bill. a bill that authorizes many of the programs that keep us safe from foreign terrorists on foreign soil. What we have not been focused on in these 2 weeks is the threat that comes when people cross our own borders without inspection. In fact. I would argue we havent been focusing on this problem enough this year. We havent taken the steps necessary to keep our borders. particularly the northern border. safe. That is simply unacceptable. It is no secret that today our immigration system is in shambles. To say our borders are not secure is an incredible understatement. Although most of my Republican colleagues would agree with me. they have failed to take comprehensive action.
