If this McCaul bill is similar to the McCaul-Thompson bill that passed a few years ago, then there shouldn't be an issue. It was the Democrats who suggested it as a reasonable trade for the DA, so they are clearly on board.

If DA doesn't get attached to this, or at least doesn't even get a proper vote then democrats have failed us.
so, go through committee, how many vote do they got to have?

Finally got home to take a look at the bill text...

Quote:
"(VII) estimates of the relative cost effectiveness of various border security strategies and operations, including deployment of personnel and technology, and construction of new physical and virtual barriers."
Surely they're not talking about a fire wall because NPR posted this yesterday:

Sure, it may not completely have the affect that people are hoping but it would create jobs. It's definitely a waste of money because the border is TOO big. I think having barriers in a few strategic places would be money more well spent. But shit, the US govt spends money on a lot of stupid stuff.
