CONGRESS SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT NARCOTICS
(Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, every major city in America is
experiencing booming heroin sales. Kids with eyes watering and noses
running are running the streets and dangerous. Now, if that is not
enough to scare the welcome wagon, our borders are wide open. Wide open
big time.
While Congress is building halfway houses, narcoterrorists are coming
across the border and treating it like a speed bump. Beam me up.
I yield back the fact that we are wasting billions and billions of
dollars on a failed narcotics policy that could provide for a
prescription drug program for every senior in America. Wise up Congress
and let us really do something about narcotics.
