                     MORE BORDER PROTECTION NEEDED

  (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, the news says that Mexican 
narcoterrorists have put contracts on American agents and border 
patrol. Unbelievable. The news says the Fuentes Gang will pay millions 
of dollars to kill our agents. Why not? Think about the billions of 
dollars they are making in heroin and cocaine sales in America.
  And what are we doing about it? The drug czar wants more halfway 
houses, more counselors, more cops. Beam me up. We got more narcotics 
in America, and it is coming in faster than Viagra into Niagara. It is 
time to use the military wisely at our border.
  I yield back the bull's-eyes on the backs of American drug agents.
