OPINION:
Members of Congress have excelled in rhetoric over the need for a comprehensive border policy. The press has been collaborative in affording members free reign for discourse, but the time for action has long past. No member of Congress should be given consideration for rhetoric on the border unless he or she is willing to pledge actionable legislation in a bill.
The period of asking, What we should do? is long over for members of Congress. Action, in the mind of most citizens, is overdue. As they say, talk is cheap — and that is what the public has heard for too long.

Clinton, Miss.
