They don't need to pass it. They already passed it! A 700 mile fence has been authorized, the money has been appropriated, and awaits only President Arbusto to comply with the bill he signed and build it. He won't do it because if he did, it might actually work. Then he would never get his amnesty/slave labor bill passed.
What a joke. The border is almost 2000 miles long. Nothing will change. This is a meaningless sop to the Republican base, while still preserving a steady supply of cheap labor for big corporations.
They must think we're idiots.
