Mr. CARPER. Mr. President, I am pleased to be able to serve with the
Presiding Officer on the Committee on Homeland Security. Part of our
responsibilities on homeland security is to make sure, to the extent
that we can, that our borders are secure. We do that in a variety of
ways. We do that, in some cases, with our Border Patrol officers. We
have a lot of them. We appreciate the work they do. We also have, in many places, particularly along the border of
Mexico--as the Presiding Officer knows--a lot of fencing that is there. We have a lot of roads that our vehicles can travel along to have
mobility on the ground.
