Glenn Grothman: “I just reiterate, being at the border and talking to the members of the Border Patrol who are on the border every day…”

“I just reiterate, being at the border and talking to the members of the Border Patrol who are on the border every day, they feel the current situation is untenable and is allowing more people to cross the border than they should. As far as the idea of simply climbing over a fence, I have yet to meet anybody on the border, be it Border Patrol agent, be it American law enforcement, be it people who have land on the border, who do not feel the wall is a good thing. They all realize it is a wall system. It takes more than just a wall. They prefer if we describe it as a wall system, but they all feel we need additional barriers at the border to prevent this over 200,000 people a month streaming in here. Mr. Chair, I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Wisconsin (Mr. Grothman). The amendment was agreed to. Amendment No. 23 Offered by Ms. Wasserman Schultz The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 23 printed in part B of House Report 118-216.”
