Thread: Lame-Duck Lands Bill Threatens Border Security

http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/25 ... el-gattuso

With his time running out, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is expected to try to force a massive omnibus lands bill through Congress. If passed, the mega-package would buy up and tie up millions of acres of land in over 13 states — and worse, increase the national-security risk at the Mexican border.

The omnibus bill, which includes over 100 federal land-acquisition bills, is on a fast track this lame-duck session and is expected to come up for a vote next week. Individually, these bills failed to make it beyond committee, but the Democratic leadership is hopeful they can pass it by ramming it through the lame duck as an omnibus bundle.

Many of the bills failed to pass because they are considered controversial. For example, legislation sponsored by Senator Bingaman (D., N.M.) would designate over 100,000 acres of land at or near the New Mexico–Mexico border as federal wilderness area, increasing the threat of drug smuggling into the U.S. from Mexico.

The package is being considered for a vote at a time when the Government Accountability Office is warning that Border Patrol is losing the fight over illegal entry and drug smuggling in border areas where lands are owned and managed by the federal government. According to the just-released GAO report, “Border Patrol apprehensions have not kept pace with the estimated number of illegal entries, indicating that threats to these areas may be increasing.â€

These DemoRAT traitors need to be arrested and thrown In jail for failing to protect their own U.S citizens from an all out Invasion of Illegals from around the world. They are doing everything that they can to keep our borders wide open to Illegals and terrorists They are leaving the United States wide open to an attack of massive proportions...

I forwarded this to McConnell, Sessions, Kyl and a few other Senators...

"With our national security at stake, let’s hope Senator Reid does the right thing and suspends the omnibus lands package".

Or "Hope" he and the California Democraps take a rocket ship to the Sun.
Same chance, same odds.
These ideologues are out of their minds about doing anything right.

Hopefully they're already aware, but it's better to be safe than sorry.
