You sure know what you are talking about because of the lifelong service that you have given to law enforcement. I loved what you shared. It is time to listen to those people on the ground and in operations. That is who we need to listen to. You are right. When I had a chance to go to the border, the Border Patrol are saying we need this. They are there every day risking their lives trying to keep us safe. So thank you for sharing your firsthand perspective from law enforcement and what you are hearing. I appreciate it. Now, Mr. Speaker, I would like to turn to another colleague of mine, whom I actually had to travel to the border with back in October. She is from Arizona, which is where the port was in Mariposa, Nogales, that we went to. Debbie Lesko, thank you for joining us tonight. I really appreciate your sharing with America and with our colleagues here about what you are seeing from Arizona and your perspective on the need to build this security wall at the border. I yield to the gentlewoman from Arizona (Mrs. Lesko).
