It does not take money away from national parks. It does not increase spending on government land acquisitions. And it does not impede border security. I find it ironic that the nowminority. having been the majority for the past 7 years. has not been able to change some of the land designations that they are so upset about today. This vehicle. H.R. 2016. should not be the vehicle for them to vent their frustration. H.R. 2016 has gone through a rigorous process and has bipartisan support. With regard to border security. the failure of this Congress to comprehensively grapple with the security issues. the border issues and the immigration issues that are facing this country. a broken immigration system that all of us can agree to. that failure to enact those should not be now made the responsibility of H.R. 2016. for the crisis that has been created by the inaction and the fearful reaction of many Members of Congress to try to deal with border issues and border security. H.R. 2016 is a good piece of legislation. Specifically. the savings clause protects the intention of those lands. the management of those lands and the uses of those lands.
