Immigration Debate

Perhaps you didn’t know but there are 23 million visitors that come to the United States each year and that number is growing. There are 15 million visitors coming from Mexico and Canada each and every year and the authorities want to know who is coming into our country and why. They also want to make sure that those people who have VISAs or passes do not overstay their visits, and if they do they want them to check back and in re-sign-up to extend their visit.
 
RFID tags would not only be used to prevent the legal and illegals from coming into the country but also be used to stop human trafficking and drugs. There are over seven million cargo containers that come into our country each year and we cannot check all of them, but with RFID tags we could. Recently we have set up special scanning machines to look inside these cargo containers, but sometimes that is not even enough.
