Until last week, laws protecting the "endangered" environment were hindering border control from ironically controlling the border. Why? Because our nation has become so obsessed with preserving every blade or grass, flower blossom, and uncontaminated square foot of land in this country. I'm pro-"save the planet" but in the game of illegal alien hide and seek do the benefits of a few bushes and wildflowers outweight the cost of these illegals crossing our border?
Thanks to Utah Governor Rob Bishop, these laws are no longer impeding and hindering our nations effort to control the border. The bill was obviously much appreciated. It passed 26-17.
"The policies of the United States unfortunately and unwittingly make it easier for illegals to come across public lands," Bishop said Wednesday at a House Natural Resources Committee meeting.
Let's not be too critical. Border control does have access to land reluctantly granted by the baysitters of environment protection, but they unfortunately(and possibly all too conveniently for environmentalist) can't can't use it without permission. What a novel idea.
"Agents 'cannot secure the border if they cannot access the border' said officers in The National Association of Former Border Patrol.
