Congress Debates Military Tribunals and Border Fencing Push
The House advances HR 6061 authorizing 700 miles of two layered border fence at a $2 billion estimate while Senate actions allow existing 370 miles of triple layered fencing. A Democratic alternative for a $5.3 billion 2007 border program was rejected. A 9/11 Resolution passed the House 395 to 22 praising post 9/11 actions. Senate moves on airport screening, port and rail security, and cargo scanning with controversial amendments.
