When we were at the Yuma border a year ago we talked to a group of rank and file Border Patrol agents and one thing I said is, look, we are the Congress. We cannot enforce the laws. We write laws so what laws do you need us to write?
Not because of a lack of resources, but because the laws that have been adopted in the 1970s make it cost prohibitive.
