                        MILITARY AT OUR BORDERS

  (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, Army at our airports, soldiers on our 
trains, National Guard in our cities, military everywhere except our 
borders. Our borders are still wide open. Unbelievable. Terrorists can 
cross with ease and kill millions of Americans. Beam me up. Policemen 
were not designed to fight a war, the military was.
  I yield back the need for Congress to ensure the security and safety 
of our borders to keep terrorists out; and we are not going to do it 
with law enforcement. It is time to put the military at our borders.
