The United States remains under threat and is vulnerable to attacks by international terrorists despite government efforts to tighten visa procedures and enhance intelligence cooperation, an immigration watchdog group said yesterday.
The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) said streamlined visa requirements and upgraded intelligence data made it "more likely" that the "continuing vulnerability of our borders to illegal entry will be exploited in the next terrorist attack."
A report by John L. Martin, FAIR's director of special projects, described the additional resources allocated to border control since the September 11 attacks as "only making a dent in the problem because nothing has been done to deter thousands of foreigners from attempting illegal entry every day" to seek jobs in this country.
