mr. molinaro: thank you, mr. speaker. as we pause this week to recognize the men and women in law enforcement who sacrifice and serve our communities across america, it's important that we take additional steps, additional steps to provide for their safety, for the protection of their colleagues, and to enhance public safety in communities across our country. i listened intently to the debate that ensued regarding the base bill. i for one am interested in governing. governing is terrifically important. i might remind my colleagues across the aisle that the congress legislates. we adopt laws that then the executive as part of governing must actually enforce. what we have seen over the last four years is this administration and this president have surrendered the southern border to drug cartels. this administration and this president have made it easier for individuals, nearly 12 million after four years, to enter into our country unchecked, unvetted, and in many cases allowed to avoid the law. now, add to that if we are to
