We acknowledge there are problems with ports of entry. We have no problem in increasing training or border agents. We are not opposed to that at all. What we don't understand is why there is not an all-of-the-above approach, a commonsense approach that would allow us to continue to reduce and sometimes eliminate some of the issues that we are seeing. My next speaker is a classmate of mine serving faithfully on the Agriculture and the Education and Labor Committees. He is a business owner who is responsible for creating thousands of jobs from the land that he comes from, Augusta, Georgia, representing Georgia's 12th District. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Allen).
