President. it is obvious by now we are not going to be able to conclude some of our business through the process of getting concurrence from the other side. There are two emergency matters that do cry out for treatment quickly and. therefore. I will propound two emergency unanimous consent requests. The first has to do with border funding. Twice this year. the Senate overwhelminglyin fact. in 1 dayunanimously approved $3 billion for increased border fencing. 23.000 additional Border Patrol agents. 300 miles of vehicle barriers. 700 linear miles of fencing. 105 groundbased radar and camera towers. 4 unmanned aerial vehicles. and increased the detention capacity to 45.000. Twice that was passed. but it is still not law. We are coming up to the end of the year.
