We need to do a better jobI think we are doing a better joband also at the same time make sure the flow of commerce continues unimpeded. The legislation that was passed about 18 months or so ago with strong bipartisan support sought to double. I believe. as I recall. the number of people who work in the Border Patrol doing some of the border security work. We already have about 20.000 people there. I think we have another maybe 20.000 or so who are working the ports of entry to try to make sure we are stopping bad people. bad things. including diseases. insects. and all kinds of things that hurt our agriculture economy to try to stop that from getting through.
