I thank the chairman. Assessing the impact of the Merida Initiative on the border security operations of the relevant United States Government departments and agencies. including the Department of Homeland Security. and identify additional resources. if any. that the relevant United States Government departments and agencies. including the Department of Homeland Security. need to make available to carry out this initiative. I recall specifically as a member of the Subcommittee on Border Security writing legislation and the ranking member on the Immigration Subcommittee in our past Congresses on providing more resources for our Border Patrol. It was interesting that the administration was always voicing their leadership on the idea of border security. and our Border Patrol agents were suffering. There were not enough. They didnt have the kind of speedboats. night goggles and computers.
