The federal government must prove it can protect the nation's borders before Congress can pass a guest-worker program, House Majority Leader Tom DeLay said yesterday, vowing that the House will insist that the emergency war-spending bill contain the immigration security provisions that passed in the chamber.
"Ultimately, we need to enforce our laws. The American people need to see us protect our borders and enforce our laws," Mr. DeLay said. "Then, they'll be willing to talk about a guest-worker program."
