Speech #1130113902

While the bill is not perfect. it does give law enforcement many tools they have requested. For example. while I was in the Rio Grande Valley earlier this month. Border Patrol agents cited administrationcreated restrictions that bar them access to Federal lands as a significant stumbling block to securing the border. One of the more important provisions of this bill gives Border Patrol agents access to Federal lands so that they can stop drug traffickers. human smugglers. and unlawful immigrants from exploiting these gaps along the border. Since the President isnt taking the serious action needed to address the crisis at the border. the House is doing so today. Again.
