Mr. President. my amendment would direct t75 million for ICE to expand the 287(g) program so that more local law enforcement agencies have the resources to identify and help process criminal illegal aliens. To address the problems presented by individuals who are not only here illegally but who have selfidentified themselves because of their criminal behavior. we must provide the funding for ICE to make the necessary resources available to local law enforcement officials who are on the front lines. Greater funding for ICE. specifically the 287(g) program. is sorely needed. I urge my colleagues to support this important amendment.
