Congresswoman Katherine Harris, the Republican candidate for United States Senate, became a co-sponsor yesterday for H.R. 6061, The Secure Fence Act, to confront the immediate need for additional infrastructure to help secure our borders from terrorists and other criminal elements.
A vote on the bill is anticipated later today. Her opponent, Bill Nelson has stymied recent efforts to bolster border security by voting in favor of Senate Amendment 4188, legislation that includes provisions requiring the United States to consult with Mexico before building a border fence.

Looks like a clear choice to me. Problem there is Florida is already loaded up with illegals of every sort.

Harris's only chance is to find an issue that really reasonates. Maybe this will be it.

She should go up in the polls a few points for this as the word gets out.

If only every Republican candidate would come down HARD on illegals and be FOR a big fence... the Dhimmi's wouldn't have a prayer in November... or 2008 for that matter.

Thanks for the post, however, the bill is pretty weak in that it only includes extending fences currently in place in 4 locations along the border between 5-15 miles and includes an 18 month time frame to enact the provisions in the bill.
Something more immediate needs t be enacted IMHO.

Every GOP House member who voted for securing our borders ought to rub their Dem opponent's nose in his/her coddling of illegal aliens. This issue has very long legs and can be in deal maker this November. However, if you are a GOP Senate member and voted for amnesty, then you are up the creek.

She did this today or yesterday? Where was she when this bill was in it's infancy? This has been hanging out there for a long time if it's ready to be voted on and she's just now touching it?

Illegal aliens: those determined to get amnesty for them call it a 'Gordion's knot'.
K. Harris & more like her: the sword.

"Congresswoman Katherine Harris stands up for our security and will never cater to foreign governments, when the safety of the American people is at stake."
Hopefully, this puts a bug nail in Nelson's political coffin.
