U.S. Border Patrol Cannot Pursue Illegal Aliens In EPA Protected Lands. Bill in House to Change.

About time they did something about this.

Read an excerpt from the news article.

The dominant factor preventing agents from catching human and drug smugglers is limiting their access along the border region, says Rep. Rob Bishop (R.-Utah) the bill’s sponsor.

It also creates a secure corridor for criminals to travel through without fear of apprehension, and they are causing environmental damage as well, Bishop said.

‘People are dying on the border, animals are being killed, plant species are being destroyed by the drug cartels,” Bishop said.

“We can no longer turn our backs on the violence, environmental degradation and rampant criminal activity occurring on our public lands,” Bishop said.  “Fires are being started as diversions and distress signs.  Murder is taking place.  Rape is happening on the border.  The conditions are barbaric,” Bishop said.

EPA has to be brought under control, and here the House is making progress.
