already working hard to fight fires, support the Global War on
Terrorism, and prepare for hurricane season;
Whereas the National Guard has successfully intercepted many undocumented
illegal immigrants and shipments of illegal drugs;
Whereas while the debate on immigration reform continues between the House and
the Senate, the National Guard continues its work in securing the
Nation's borders; and
Whereas over half of the States' Governors have already signed a memorandum of
agreement to participate in Operation Jump Start: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring),
