Madam Speaker. I rise in very strong support of this border security legislation presented to us today. for a number of reasons. It does provide for humanitarian assistance. This legislation does deal with this issue in a compassionate. thoughtful way to deal with the unaccompanied children. It secures the border. provides for funding for the National Guard. and it does many other things. too. in terms of policy changes that would treat these children just as we would treat unaccompanied children who cross the border from Canada or Mexico. It is the right policy for a whole host of reasons.
