With the event of the Jordanians being lit on fire yesterday. it is a wakeup call that we need to act and that we need to act soon in the Congress to protect the American people. This is more than Homeland Securityit is national security. It is really not an immigration issue. This bill is about securing the border in a smart way. When I was in Afghanistan and Pakistan. I met with General Allen. They didnt really have much of a fence. but I said: "What is your border security with the Pak border?" They pointed to aerostats in the sky that could see for hundreds of miles that we saw on our recent trip down there. With the value of 100 percent visibility to see what is coming in and how to stop it. you can measure success. first of all. but you can respond to the threats in realtime. In addition. the VADER technology. the radar on the Predator UAVs. is of tremendous value for a smart border.
