On the recordJuly 29, 1998
I too appreciate the Senator from Ohio's efforts in seeking additional funds for the U.S. Customs Service to better interdict drug traffickers. This amendment today is another important step toward restoring a balanced drug interdiction strategy. This amendment represents a bipartisan effort to make a targeted and specific investment in stopping drugs before they reach America. It will take similar efforts over the course of the next 3 years to bring our drug strategy back into balance, and most important, back on the course of reducing drug use in our homes, schools, and communities.
