Michael Cutler's testimonies on immigration issues this week
By Andrew Cochran
Contributing Expert Michael Cutler, a Fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies and a former senior immigration agent testified twice this week on immigration issues. On March 9, he testified before the House Homeland Security Oversight Subcommittee that the U.S. law enforcement assets in the Homeland Security Department need to be reorganized and refocused if we are to stop terrorists from coming across our borders. Currently, new immigration agents are not even receiving Spanish-language training, which was part of the agents' training curriculum in the old Immigration and Naturalization Service. On March 10, Mr. Cutler testified before the House Judiciary Immigration & Border Security Subcommittee that the Administration's request for 143 additional border agents was far too small to protect national security, especially given that the intel reform act authorized hundreds of new agents.
