Sessions amendment (SA 3979)
Summary: Requires DHS to construct at least 370 miles of triple-layered fencing (which may include portions already constructed in San Diego, Tucson and Yuma Sectors) and 500 miles of vehicle barriers in other areas along the southwest border that DHS determines are areas that are most often used by smugglers and illegal aliens attempting to gain illegal entry, and requires that construction thereof be completed within two years.

And all we've got to do in order to make this dream a reality is agree to amnesty for 12 million illegal aliens...

Good news and bad. Good news in that a serious fence is being built, albeit for only 380 miles. If it's 380 miles of the most heavily traveled parts of the border, that will certainly help.

Bad news in that this increases the chance the bill will get past the House. Which is the point of the amendment I'm sure.

Still, I'm glad to see this happen. Sets a good precedent in that since we already will have a 380 mile fence, why not just double it in size a few years from now?
