While touring the Santa Teresa Port of Entry, U.S. Sen. Pete Domenici, R-N.M., announced major legislation aimed at securing the border and providing an increase in funding for border security personnel in next year's budget.

Domenici said the resources include advanced technology to make traffic flow more efficiently, providing immigration officials with better training and better equipment.

"If you asked me what pushed it, it's is the actual realization and our own people our constituents -- not only on the border states, but Americans saying they want something done," Domenici said.

The boost in border infrastructure is only one part of the legislation, the second part is aimed at illegal immigration.
