Byron Dorgan

I am pleased to be here to support the amendment offered by my colleague, the Senator from West Virginia, Mr. Byrd. This is a very important subject, the subject of homeland security. In some areas, if we make a mistake in the United States Congress, we waste money or some other inconvenience occurs or something important happens. But this is a case where if we make a mistake, the safety of the American people is at stake. So homeland security is critically important.

Byron Dorgan

I have watched with great interest Senator Byrd's presentation of his amendment. Let me say this about my colleague from West Virginia. Much has been said about him. Let me say today that I think he is old- fashioned. That is right, I think he is old-fashioned. I think he brings to the floor, with this amendment, the values and virtues of being old-fashioned, saying: Yes, let's do it, but let's do it right.

I know that is old fashioned to some. We live in kind of a turbo- charged world. We want what we want, and we want it right now. We are a world of fast food, Jiffy Lube, 1-hour cleaning, and Minute Rice. We want it this instant.

Byron Dorgan

Senator Byrd brings to us a version of legislative home cooking, saying: Let's put all this together the right way. Let's make sure it is seasoned the right way because the safety and security of this country depends on it.

Byron Dorgan

Senator Byrd's amendment does not change the deadlines by which we will provide homeland security, but he sets up weigh points by which we can work with the executive branch to create this new Department of Homeland Security. After all, we are talking about putting 170,000 people in a single agency -- one single agency.

Some would say: Well, that is pretty easy to do. It is not easy to do at all. The development of a bureaucracy is always at odds and always creates tension with efficiency and effectiveness. Take a look at what has happened in recent days, the stories about the CIA and the FBI and the kind of work that was done, or not done, with respect to what they knew and did not know leading up to September 11.

It is very important we have agencies put together and locked together in a way that protects this county's interests, and especially that we have accountability. And that is where the Byrd amendment is so important.

The Byrd amendment will guarantee the accountability of all of the Department's activities because it will be assigned to one person. One person will be accountable for this agency as it is constructed: the Secretary of Homeland Security. I think that is very important to understand.

Port security in this country, homeland security/port security: We are going to spend $7 to $8 billion defending against an intercontinental ballistic missile that is going to come in at 14,000 miles an hour. People are worried a terrorist or a rogue nation is going to get ahold of an ICBM, so we will spend $7 to $8 billion on that in the Defense bill this year. But it is far more likely that a weapon of mass destruction will come into a port, in a container, on a container ship, and pull up to that port at 2 miles per hour.

What Senator Byrd is suggesting in this amendment is not that we should delay the creation of homeland security. It is that, as we move along to the 13 months, we, in fact, create weigh points so we can measure what we are doing, what the President is doing, what the administration is doing.

It is very much like when you learn to fly. I learned to fly with a private plane once. When you fly, you fly the weigh points you establish out there. This legislation says: Yes, let's have a Homeland Security Department. Let's meet the deadline, do it on time, but let's do it right. And it establishes weigh points by which the Congress becomes a full partner with the administration in developing and making sure that we implement properly the Homeland Security Department.

If we make a mistake here, it is about the security of the United States of America. This is not about wasting money. It is about this country's security. That is why this amendment is so important.

People say: Well, this amendment guts the bill coming out of the committee. It does not do anything of the sort. This bill improves it. And this bill gives Congress the role it ought to have with the administration to make homeland security work for the United States of America.

Madam President, I rise in support of the Byrd amendment and urge my colleagues to back this very important amendment. But I also rise to thank the very able Senator from West Virginia for his firm and constant leadership on this very important issue. I particularly appreciate the careful way in which he has formulated this amendment.

The only difference is it would do it in stages and would give the Congress a continuing role to examine carefully how this is being done, how the directorates are put into place, and would give us a better chance to carefully examine the full range of implications of many of the important principles, including worker protections, civil liberties, privacy, secrecy, and which functions to transfer and how they should be transferred.

Senator Byrd is given to quoting Roman history. A lot of my colleagues tend to consider that as interesting but not always directly relevant. I disagree. I think he reaches back and draws out lessons which are of extreme importance to us. I particularly like the quote he used in this debate of Gaius Petronius Arbiter, who was an adviser to Nero:

The Baltimore Sun ran an editorial actually concluding that they were against establishing the Department of Homeland Security. Senator Byrd's amendment does not do that. Senator Byrd is prepared to establish the Department, but he wants to be very careful in how we do it. The Sun, in that editorial, pointed out that in trying to establish this Department, we are taking the focus off the need for tighter oversight of the Nation's security systems; that shifting 22 Federal agencies and 170,000 employees is a massive undertaking, and it needs to be done very carefully.

Additional oversight is required in order to assure that this is done in the right manner. We have agencies with multiple functions. Some relate to homeland security; some do not. How are we going to accommodate that complexity? The Byrd amendment, by requiring further timely participation of the Congress, will give us the opportunity for additional scrutiny to ensure that a massive governmental reorganization is done carefully and effectively. We do not want to create chaos and confusion which will set us back in our efforts to deal with homeland security.

The Senator from West Virginia has underscored how carefully we did the National Security Act that reorganized the Department of Defense. That is not being done in this instance. I very strongly support this amendment and urge my colleagues to back it.

I want to underscore what the Senator said. Senator Lieberman has done fine work on this legislation. It is no detraction from Senator Lieberman's fine efforts to support the Byrd amendment. In fact, I think the two can be perceived as being complementary.

The Byrd amendment would allow for a more orderly transition of authorities to a new Homeland Security Department than the underlying bill would otherwise provide for. I support the underlying bill, and I commend the chairman of the Government Affairs Committee and others for their work on it. Long before the Administration concluded that a single new Federal department could best protect our domestic security, the committee and its chairman, Senator Lieberman, developed the framework for such a department. Now that framework is essentially the bill we have before us. It is a good framework, but I believe this amendment is a key improvement.

This bill authorizes the largest reorganization of Federal Government functions undertaken in half a century. While we have been debating the bill for several weeks, I agree with the Senator from West Virginia that it is a task that warrants deliberation and care. It is the right of Congress to participate deeply both in creating the framework for this needed new department, but also in overseeing key details of the transition to it. Indeed, in my view, we have not only the right to participate. We have an obligation.

The Byrd amendment would allow immediate creation of a new Homeland Security Department. It would immediately establish the superstructure of the Secretary and the six directorates as outlined by the Lieberman substitute, and then require that the administration submit three separate legislative proposals to transfer agencies and functions to the new Department. This would give Congress the opportunity to gauge and modify how the new Department is being implemented, while it drafts legislation to transfer additional functions and agencies and would provide Congress with additional means to head off problems that traditionally plague and delay massive reorganizations. What's more, under the Byrd amendment, Congress would be required to act on these legislative proposals within 13 months on enactment, which is roughly the same time period outlined by the Lieberman plan.

The Byrd Amendment guides us towards a more rational approach for undertaking the task of creating the new department, and I support it. Protecting the American homeland is not just President Bush's responsibility. It is our responsibility as well. And it is the responsibility of future presidents and future Congresses. So we must make sure that we do everything within our power now to create the very best structure to protect our's and future generations.

There is no delay, and we have the same basic legislative time period of 13 months. Once the Department of Homeland Security is established, the Secretary will submit legislative proposals and recommendations for the orderly transfer of agencies and functions based on the Department's actual needs in carrying on its mission. Through additional involvement in the implementation of the agency transfers and reorganizations, Congress will be able to exercise meaningful oversight after the enactment of homeland security legislation.

That is what is so important about the Byrd amendment. It guides us toward a more rational approach to the undertaking of the task of creating a new Department. I support it.

Protecting the American homeland is not just President Bush's responsibility or any President's responsibility; it is our responsibility as well. It is the responsibility of future Presidents and future Congresses.

Senator Byrd plays a key, indispensable role. Senator Byrd has been on the floor week after week calling on all of us to exercise our constitutional responsibility; talking about the importance of legislative involvement, the importance of checks and balances, the importance of deliberation, the importance of understanding full well the consequences of what we do.

Clearly, what we have before us is a bill crafted by Senator Lieberman which is far better than what has come out of the House, far better than what the administration put forward. There is no question in my mind that Senator Lieberman has taken us forward.

I have to say, as someone who has been in office for many years, I have come to be very skeptical about a huge reshuffling of agencies in Government and huge moves without lots of time to look at the ramifications. My belief is that in moving so quickly to such a large reshuffling, we are going to bring about less accountability, not more, in terms of how this Government functions.

Senator Byrd is saying, yes, we need to create this Department. Let's bring forward some of the best and brightest people to begin to put it together. But let's slow down; let's take a deep breath. Let's make sure what we are doing is going to result in more protection for the American people, more efficiency on behalf of these departments, not less.

I am also very concerned about the movement away from rights for people who will work in this Department. Senator Lieberman has been very strong, and I hope he will prevail, but I am very concerned that more than 40,000 people in this new Department who do not deal directly with national security -- they may be, for example, a secretary, a file clerk, someone who works in that Department -- are going to lose worker protections.

Barbara Boxer

I have said before, and I will reiterate it today, that it is a very cynical move, I believe a grab of power on behalf of this administration, to do that to these people. Doesn't the President have more things to occupy himself -- and I know he does -- than worrying about whether a secretary or a file clerk has the ability to say to the people who supervise her, through her union, through her bargaining unit: I need a better salary; I need better health care; explain to me what my work rules will be? I do not think any President -- this one or any future one -- should interfere with that. It is very important that people have their dignity.

On the one hand, we have the President saying he is creating this new Department and it is so important; on the other hand, what is the first thing he wants to do? He wants to strip away the rights of people.

Barbara Boxer

In California over the weekend, I spoke to working men and women, maybe about a thousand of them. I pointed out to them what I have pointed out in this Chamber -- and others have pointed it out, too -- that the real heroes of 9/11 were not politicians, were not any Senators or Members of Congress. Certainly not. And certainly not anyone sitting in the Oval Office or in the Old Executive Office Building.

Mr. President, when I first read the details of the President's Homeland Security Department proposal, I was concerned. And when the House leadership passed the President's proposal without so much as a second glance, I was dismayed.

I believe the amendment proposed by Senator Byrd builds upon and strengthens the good work of Senator Lieberman and his committee. The Byrd amendment provides for the creation of a Department of Homeland Security -- just as the Lieberman bill does. But, instead of immediately moving agencies into the new Department's directorates, the administration would be required to come back to Congress -- and to the relevant House and Senate oversight committees -- with detailed legislative proposals before any transition actually occurs.

Many questions remain unanswered about this Department of Homeland Security. The Byrd amendment would require the President and his advisors to address these questions before agencies are moved into the new Department.

If we grant the administration the statutory powers it is demanding without first passing the Byrd amendment and making it part of the final bill we send to the President, we will lose the support, I believe, to get it right.

The Byrd amendment would also ensure that the implementation of the Department occurs in a more thoughtful way, with more openness and less secrecy.

I will conclude in this way: I am proud to support Senator Byrd's amendment. I hope my colleagues will do so, too. It retains the checks and balances that are so important and that our Founders told us we must do. It also will result in a Department that will be well thought out and that means it will, in fact, protect the people of this country in a much better way than we are being protected today.

Madam President, I rise today in support of the Byrd amendment to ensure the proper deliberation and congressional oversight in the creation of the Department of Homeland Security. While I applaud the chairman and ranking member for working to develop changes in our Federal system to better harden our defenses against potential terrorism targets, and to create effective, integrated protections, we must not allow the task of government reorganization to distract us from our vulnerabilities.

I think it is particularly timely that we are on the floor debating how to protect ourselves from the future of any kind of 9/11 attacks while the Intelligence Committee is discussing the implications of its report that demonstrates how the primary weakness is not the fact we did not have a 170,000-person Federal agency.

Instead, we are learning that the men and women of our intelligence community neither have the resources nor the adequate mechanisms in place to communicate and to share information and to connect the dots before an attack happened.

I urge my colleagues to remember, while creation of a Homeland Security Department is an important step, which I believe is about hardening our targets and creating redundancy, we cannot ignore the primary challenge we are facing in intelligence gathering.

Similarly, any forward movement in strengthening our homeland security must not also distract us from our constitutionally mandated responsibilities to provide the necessary oversight and adequate deliberation in the enormous process of creating a new Department.

Despite the enormity of this effort and its implications, some have criticized the Senate for not rushing this legislation through this body. I submit that these critics are wrong. We are accountable to our constituents for good, thoughtful legislation -- not the rate at which we pass a bill.

The Byrd amendment will strengthen Senator Lieberman's bill by sending the message that this body is committed to creating a Department of Homeland Security with a mission to protect the American people and with the clear determination that we will act responsibly in doing so because we want to get it right. This is critically important because it would require the implementation of the new Department to be considered by Congress.

The Byrd amendment ensures that the important first step is followed by a process that will ensure that Congress and the Nation are involved in asking the right questions when it comes to the specific details of this reorganization, including the specific agencies and responsibilities that need to be transferred, the personnel strategies that need to be implemented, and a wide array of other logistical issues.

Any reorganization of this magnitude is difficult and complex. I can tell you, having been in the private sector, I have seen a lot of reorganizations in the private sector that don't go as smoothly as people want them to. And on a much larger scale, this proposal, I believe, deserves the kind of attention this amendment gives it.

Madam President, I think there are two fundamental examples in this bill. One of them is the Coast Guard -- I am sure my colleague from Washington will expound on this -- which is being transferred. The critical mission of that agency needs to be secured and understood as that agency is transferred. The other is an important opportunity within the National Institute of Standards and Technology with the Computer Security Division -- again, a key mission that is being met for the private sector in creating technology standards that may be transferred, and that mission may be lost.

In summary, it is critically important that we not rush to make these changes and then believe we have delivered service to the American people. Let them be sure we are involved in guaranteeing that this agency is hardening our targets and strengthening our redundancy.

I want to make sure we don't just "do something" about security, but that we do the right thing. Let's face it, it takes time to get the simple things right. I have been working with the Transportation Security Administration now for months on airline security and we still have not worked out all of the issues. It took a long time for us to get the National Guard to deploy to our northern border. In creating this new Department, I want to make sure we get it right.

Three weeks ago, I spoke on the Senate floor and raised a number of questions, and at this point I am still troubled by the lack of answers I have received. There are many different ways to set up this Department. The President has offered one way. His proposal was created in a short amount of time by a few officials meeting at the White House in secret. We don't know how the President's proposal will balance the security and the economic needs of the American people.

As I have stated before, I have two major concerns. First, we have not yet figured out how to fulfill our traditional missions and the new security missions at the same time. If we combine these various agencies into one massive Homeland Security Department, how are we going to meet the traditional mission?

Just look at the Coast Guard. Since September 11, the Coast Guard has shifted resources away from their traditional missions to homeland defense. That is an appropriate response, but it comes at a cost. What the shift in resources means to the average American is that the Coast Guard is now spending less time interdicting drugs and illegal immigrants, enforcing fishery and marine safety laws, and protecting our marine environment. Yet the need for the Coast Guard to perform these vital missions is as important today as it was before the attack on our country.

Unfortunately, we have not figured out how to effectively carry out both missions at the same time. I would like to know how one massive Department, focused primarily on security, will more effectively address all of our safety and security needs.

Secondly, I am very concerned about how this new Department will function. The administration has asked for unprecedented power and control over this proposed Department. The President wants to change the personnel rules so he can have what he calls flexibility. From what I understand, the administration already has flexibility under current law.

In addition to dramatic new controls over workers, the administration wants the power to move money around without congressional input. From what I have seen so far, that is pretty scary news for families in my State of Washington.

Right now, I can fight to make sure that the needs in my State are being met. But if the administration gets this unprecedented authority, then accountants in the Office of Management and Budget will decide what is important to the people in my home State. If that happens, my constituents are going to lose out -- at a cost to their safety and their security.

So we need to better understand and define all of the missions in the various agencies. We need to make sure they continue to fulfill their traditional missions. That is why I support the Byrd amendment. It will allow us to move forward in a pragmatic manner that allows us to do this right. It is essential for our economic security and our future safety.

Madam President, for literally more than a year now, the bipartisan membership of the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee has been working to strengthen our homeland security, particularly and intensely after the events of September 11 which showed the extent to which the disorganization of Federal homeland security activities created vulnerabilities of which the terrorists took advantage.

The amendment offered by the great Senator from West Virginia is the most direct challenge the committee's work will face in this debate because it puts at issue the question not only of the approach the committee has taken in creating the Department but whether we in the Senate believe it is urgently necessary to have a Department of Homeland Security, a better organized Federal Government to protect the American people anytime soon.

This amendment will retain the basic administrative structure of the Department as we have proposed, but that is all. The amendment nominally sets up the same six directorates as the Governmental Affairs Committee proposal, but that is where the similarity ends.

Here is an example: We created a directorate for emergency preparedness and response. Our Committee proposal transfers six distinct agencies, or sets of programs, and includes more than seven pages of legislative text specifying the missions and operating provisions of the directorate. The parallel provision in Senator Byrd's amendment, section 134, found on page 37 of that amendment, consists of not seven pages but seven lines of text. Three creates the directorate, and four authorizes an Under Secretary to run it. But that is all. No goals, no missions, no duties, no programs, no personnel, no directorate in any real sense. That is the approach taken by this amendment for all of the directorates, with the exception of Immigration, where the amendment does not disturb our provision to transfer and restructure the Immigration and Naturalization Service.

For example, our provisions regarding a new division of intelligence would immediately begin building a potent new capability to analyze all information regarding terrorist threats and disseminate the information to help prevent or protect against attacks.

The Intelligence Directorate in the Byrd amendment is an empty room with a name on the door, awaiting future legislation to give it staff and purpose; and so it would remain, I fear, indefinitely, because there is no effective termination point, no effective implementation point in the amendment's structure.

Section 139 of the Byrd amendment calls for the Secretary of the new Department to submit to Congress over the course of the next year a series of legislative proposals for these shell directorates, including recommendations for the transfer of authorities, functions, personnel, assets, agencies, or entities, all of which would fill them up and give them some meaning.

Those recommendations are to be submitted to Congress at least 4 months apart, beginning no sooner than February 3, 2003 -- next year. That means that, at best, Congress would have the administration's proposals a year from now -- a year to recreate proposals that we have before us today.

The amendment states that Congress should take action on these proposals within 13 months of enactment of the underlying homeland security legislation. But even if this deadline were heeded, it means only that Congress would take some action. Congress could reject one or more of the proposals or vote to study the matter further. The fact is that it is very hard to bind a future Congress to do anything. So at the end of the year, under the committee's proposal, that is the deadline for this Department to be fully up and running. Thirty days after the President signs legislation under our proposal, the new Secretary would have the power to start getting the Department running. A lot of it would start rapidly, but it would all be done within a year.

Within a year, under the Byrd amendment, there is nothing but the hope that Congress will react to the proposals the administration will have sent it. So with the exception of immigration functions, there would be no assurance in the end that anything would ever be transferred into the new Department. It could indefinitely remain a bare-bones proposal with no meat on its skeletal frame whatsoever.

I am concerned about the path we are proceeding down to create this new Department, and I doubt that the result of this flawed process will adequately address the intelligence failures that were revealed so tragically on September 11, 2001.

Congress must not cede its constitutional role and responsibilities to the executive branch in this dramatic Government reorganization. Congress must remain engaged in this effort to ensure it results in a functioning, effective agency.

For instance, comparisons have been drawn between this legislation and the creation of the Department of Defense. But the creation of the Department of Defense involved a collaborative process between the executive branch and the Congress. And the executive branch agencies affected by the proposed Department were participants in the process.

A small group of advisers working in secret within the White House developed President Bush's proposal. Members of Congress and Secretaries of the affected cabinet agencies were reportedly not even informed about the proposal until the days before it was unveiled.

That Committee found that ". . . the security of the Nation can be insured only through . . . centralization of responsibility in those charged with handling intelligence." I hope we will learn our lesson after the tragic events of September 11. Correcting intelligence failures must be the hallmark of any new Department of Homeland Security.

This reorganization will affect the lives of everyday Americans for years to come. Because the President's proposal does not adequately address intelligence failures, and because the administration refuses to enter into a constructive dialogue with the Congress regarding legitimate disagreements, we have a constitutional responsibility to act.

Therefore, I support Senator Byrd's amendment to the homeland security legislation. The Byrd amendment will go along way toward ensuring Congress continues to play a constructive role in shaping the new Department as this process moves forward.

Mr. President, I acknowledge, as other colleagues have, the important work of the Senator from Connecticut. Senator Lieberman was the first to outline the reasons for bringing together all of the essential functions of Government that relate to homeland security. I know he has put literally hundreds of hours into this effort, and we thank him for that.

I support the Byrd amendment as an addition to this effort, not as a detraction, because I believe what Senator Byrd has articulated is a very important part of the way we put together a Department of Homeland Security. I think it is essential. So while I support the homeland security effort, I believe it is important to move forward along the timelines and with the checks and balances that Senator Byrd so thoughtfully has put together.

Simply put, the mission of this Department is too important to be rushed into law. I know the Senator from Connecticut would say that after months and months it does not seem like rushing; that there has been a tremendous amount of effort that has gone into this. But as that is said, I also know it is a huge task bringing together 170,000 employees, and there are many questions about the various departments, so this is something that will take continued time and thoughtfulness to be able to put together.

There are many questions that remain, and if the public is to have confidence in the new Department, those questions need to be answered. For instance, why are certain agencies being transferred into the new Department? What criteria are the administration using to determine what agencies should be transferred? Almost all of these agencies being transferred have other functions not related to homeland security, which is of great concern in Michigan -- this has been raised in a number of contexts -- and how will those functions be separated? How will they be affected?

In Michigan, we have concerns about the Coast Guard, which is a very important part of our operations not only in fighting terrorism but we want to make sure there are sufficient resources to deter terrorists from coming into our country by boat. We also know there is a critical role in search and rescue operations and ship inspections. We want to make sure in Michigan we do not lose resources for those essential civilian functions as well as the important efforts to fight terrorism.

In earlier discussions about the Homeland Security Department, the Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection System, or APHIS, would have been moved to the Homeland Security Department. While it is reasonable that the border inspection mission of APHIS would be a part of the new Department, it is also critical the domestic mission of protecting animal and plant health, and ultimately the health of American consumers, remains within the Department of Agriculture. If the full transfer of APHIS comes up again, I would like to debate and vote on that.

Those are the kinds of issues I am concerned about. We have workforce questions. There are a number of issues that have been raised which I believe need our continual input, and that is why I support the timeframe that has been put together in the Byrd amendment to create the Department without delay but then to come back to the Congress, receive input, take it step by step to make sure we are, in fact, doing it right. That is what the Byrd amendment is all about. It is about creating this Department with input feedback, coordination, and cooperation that is going to enable us to do this huge job.

I believe the Byrd amendment is a more disciplined process that will help us create a Department that is cohesive, responsive, and effective with its duties and missions clearly defined. I urge my colleagues to join with so many of us in supporting the Byrd amendment.

Under the order that was entered last night, Senator Byrd had requested 10 minutes. We all thought it was 5 minutes, but I think it is appropriate he have the 10 minutes. Therefore, I ask unanimous consent that Senator Lieberman be extended another 5 minutes to balance out that time.

Robert Byrd

Mr. President, it is my understanding Senator Thompson wants to speak. I ask the Chair to alert me when I have consumed 4 minutes and when I have consumed 5 minutes. I hope by the time I use 5 minutes Mr. Thompson will be in the Chamber so the other side can be heard, I can then speak, and then Mr. Lieberman can close out the debate.

What does my amendment do? My amendment substitutes for title I in the Lieberman bill in a way that provides congressional oversight and a systematic and orderly process by which the agencies are transferred into the new Department.

Robert Byrd

My amendment provides for the creation of a Department of Homeland Security. My amendment provides for the same superstructure as does the Lieberman amendment: in other words, the same directorates in title I and the same number of Under Secretaries, Assistant Secretaries, and so on. Those are how the two titles, title I in the Lieberman bill and title I in the Byrd amendment, are the same. What is the difference, then? The difference is my amendment provides for an orderly process whereby, in every 120 days over the next 13 months, there will be a transfer of agencies into the Department. So these will occur at 120- day intervals, unlike the Lieberman bill, which provides for the wholesale transfer over the next 13 months; it could come early, it could come late, it could come earlier than 90 days after the passage of the bill, or it could come as late as the close of the transition period, which is 12 months following the first 30 days.

Robert Byrd

Mr. Lieberman says the Department will be up and running in 13 months under his legislation. But his legislation requires only that agencies be transferred by the conclusion of the 13 months. It doesn't say they will be up and running. His bill in that respect is exactly like my amendment. Both the Lieberman bill and the Byrd amendment provide for the conclusions of the transfers of agencies over the 13 months -- by the end of the transition period, which is the end of the 13 months.

Robert Byrd

Neither his bill nor my amendment provides that the Department will be "up and running," as the distinguished Senator has said. No legislation can guarantee when the Department will be "up and running." It will likely be years, which is why Congress needs to ensure a continuing role for itself.

Congress is kept involved under the Byrd amendment, which means that the Lieberman committee will be kept involved. My amendment provides for the protection of employee rights, privacy, and civil liberties. How does it do that? Because Congress stays involved.

Congress is involved. Mr. Lieberman's committee will be involved time and again -- once, twice, three times. So Congress will be there, looking over the shoulder of the agencies, so to speak, looking over the shoulder of the administration, looking over the shoulder of the President. The President has said he needs flexibility.

We hear that worker rights will be challenged, will be jeopardized. That is not true under my amendment because of the fact that Congress will always be there, looking over the shoulders of those who would be acting to constitute the agency transfers.

Time and again, the workers' rights will be under surveillance because Congresses will not pass this bill and then walk away, as would be the case in the Lieberman bill, in which instance the Congress would pass the bill now, and then for the next 13 months -- --

So under my amendment, we are not going to say: Mr. President, here is the bill. You take it. Just report back to us from time to time and let us know how it is working. Congress is not going to relegate itself to a zero. Congress is going to be involved. Congress will be there to protect worker rights, to protect privacy, to protect civil liberties.

Mr. President, I thank my colleagues again for their eloquent statements on behalf of their positions. I think the issue with regard to this amendment has been well clarified because of those statements. I think it is pretty obvious now that there is almost unanimity that we need to proceed with the homeland security bill -- unanimity in this body. There is disagreement as to whether we ought to get about doing it or whether we should delay it. I think that is the fundamental issue with regard to this amendment.

This amendment that has been offered by the Senator from West Virginia would basically postpone the implementation of the new Department for at least a year. The President's proposals in the House and Senate bills all establish directorates. They list responsibilities, transfer funds to agencies.

Senator Byrd strikes from the Lieberman substitute all language spelling out responsibilities and transfers of functions for each directorate, leaving only language establishing each directorate under an Under Secretary. Instead, he requires the administration to provide legislative proposals in the future, no sooner than February of 2003 for border and transportation, no sooner than 120 days later for intelligence and for critical infrastructure, and no sooner than 120 days after that for emergency preparedness and science and technology.

The overall thrust is to delay implementation of this bill. The question we have to ask ourselves is whether we believe, in the exercise of our responsibilities as representatives of the people of our States, that that is the thing to do, that is where we are. I suggest we already have legislative proposals before us that the Senator from West Virginia would have the administration produce sometime next year.

We in government, especially those in the Governmental Affairs Committee, have been watching and listening and discussing for years the way the Government in many respects is dysfunctional. It has been created and added onto little by little over the years. It needs reorganization in the worst sort of way. We have been listening and watching and discussing the fact that the threat to our country from rogue nations and from terrorists is growing and growing and growing. This is not new information to any of us.

Now we have a proposal that says essentially we are moving too fast, although commissions started telling us 2 years ago what we needed to do. We started having hearings a year ago with regard to what we needed to do, and we have had 18 hearings on homeland security in the Governmental Affairs Committee alone and dozens of other hearings in the House and the Senate.

Is it really too rapid? Are we really moving too fast? Is that a criticism that is a just accusation to this body: That we are speeding this thing along, at long last, after all the information and hearings and GAO reports that you could stack as high as your head about the problems with Government and the way it needs to be reorganized and needs to be more efficient, that we have too much waste and fraud and abuse and mismanagement and overlap and duplication -- for years and years, and nobody paid any attention to it?

Now we are finally getting around to addressing some of this, and the issue before us is whether or not we need to wait at least another year before we even start doing those things. I suggest we do not. I suggest we need to get on about it. I suggest obviously there are going to be a lot of twists and turns in the road.

We have seen amendments to the Department of Energy Act recently. We have seen DOD amendments in 1985, major amendments, Goldwater-Nickles. Major pieces of legislation creating major departments or consolidated departments always produce the need to revisit those issues at a subsequent time.

I suggest Congress is not going to lose its oversight. It has been under Congress's oversight, I might add, that this duplication, waste, fraud, abuse, mismanagement, and civil service system, which the Brookings Institution and representatives there say fails and underwhelms in every task it takes -- it has been under our supervision that that has been created. With the appropriations process and the oversight process, if we do it correctly -- not the way we have necessarily done it in the past; if we do it correctly -- Congress will have a firm hand as we go down the road in the creation and the implementation of this new Department.

It is not because we are moving too fast or because of any structural deficiencies that Congress has not had the proper hand. It is because we just simply have not done it. I suggest it is about time we did it. The creation of this Department is the first step in that regard.

I had a conversation recently with Alexander Giacco, the former chairman of the board of Hercules, Incorporated. Mr. Giacco, although not taking a position on this amendment, impressed upon me the difficulty of wholesale organizational change, of the importance of getting such a structural upheaval right, and it is his comments which in part guide my vote this morning.

Senator Byrd has it right. Senator Byrd warned us months ago that a Department of Homeland Security was needed, but that the way to create such a massive new structure was not to rush into a new flow chart without asking questions first. The way to do this job right is to be deliberate, to be thoughtful, and to ask the tough questions about how our Federal agencies will interact so as to better protect the Nation. Senator Byrd's amendment gets us to a new Department as quickly as does the President's proposal and as does the proposal reported favorably by the Committee on Governmental Affairs in July.

It is important for us first to understand all that has been done since September 11 to boost our homeland defenses. In the 12 months since the attacks, the President and the Congress have moved with dispatch. The President created the Office of Homeland Security and selected the able Tom Ridge as its head. I was proud to work with my colleagues on the Judiciary Committee to draft the USA Patriot Act. That bill was a long overdue strengthening of our laws against terror. It increased the ability of law enforcement to share information, facilitated the sharing of information from criminal investigations, and reconsidered the wall that has in the past prevented the FBI and the CIA from working effectively together.

The FBI has expanded its terrorist threat warning system. A new five- level homeland security alert system has been created. Ninety-three antiterrorism task forces have been created in U.S. Attorney offices around the country. INS and Customs are working together to increase their cooperation in border enforcement. The FBI now provides information, on a daily basis, to terrorism task forces nationwide as well as to the CIA and the Defense Department. Director Mueller is in the process of revamping the entire FBI so that its primary focus is the prevention of terrorism. The INS and the State Department have together developed a Consolidated Consular Database, a database that includes visa information and photographs for aliens seeking entry into the U.S.

We have created an entire new agency, the Transportation Security Administration. Its sole mission is to protect the Nation' s transportation systems. TSA has deployed federal passenger screeners to 122 airports. They have hired more than 32,000 new Federal security screeners. These screeners will be in all 429 commercial airports by November 19. Ultimately, TSA will hire some 54,000 Federal passenger and baggage screener workers. This represents a wholesale change from the way the country organized its airport security systems prior to September 11.

The President's proposal was developed extremely rapidly, after months of Administration claims that a Homeland Security Department was not necessary, and by a tiny number of people with little to no expertise in security matters. In contrast, the chairman of the Governmental Affairs Committee has been at this issue for over a year, Senator Lieberman rightly alerted us to the recommendations of the Hart / Rudman Commission and others even before September 11. His committee held a series of hearings over the past year to determine how best to restructure and reorganize Federal agencies so that they are best positioned to respond to terror.

It is much more important that we do this right rather than doing this quickly. Imagine the impact on our country if we get this massive job wrong. Reorganizations are hard work, and if history is any guide our first effort often needs to revisited. Modern management principles teach that the agencies and functions of the executive branch should be grouped together based on their major purposes or missions. The National Security Act of 1947 created the Department of Defense, the Central Intelligence Agency and the National Security Council. Even this well thought out proposal has required serious congressional tinkering: Congress made further amendments to the organization of our national security agencies in 1949, 1953, 1958, and in 1986.

Senator Byrd's amendment builds on the work of the Committee on Governmental Affairs. The amendment retains the overall administrative structure as envisioned by the committee: six new directorates, each headed by an Under Secretary. A new Directorate of Immigration Affairs is created, and recommendations made by Senators Kennedy and Brownback to reform the INS are adopted there. The new Secretary of Homeland Security is required to submit to Congress recommendations for structuring the other five directorates. The first recommendation would be received by Congress no later than February of next year. Congress is required to take action on all of the administration's proposals by 13 months from after the legislation goes into effect. The Department would be in place in 13 months time at the latest, the same timeframe envisioned by Senator Lieberman's proposal.

The Byrd amendment gives us an orderly process under which agencies are transferred into the new Department. The Governmental Affairs bill requires that agencies are transferred to the new Department over a transition period lasting 13 months. But neither the Byrd Amendment nor the Governmental Affairs Committee's bill guarantees that a new Department will be "up and running" in just over a year's time. In fact, the General Accounting Office has testified that Congress should not expect "meaningful and sustainable results" from the new Department for at least 5 years, and perhaps as long as 10 years, due to the inherently slow nature of transitioning so many agencies into one new structure. Timing of the creating of a new Department is thus not an issue under either proposal.

Senator Byrd's proposal guarantees that the new Department will be created with increased congressional oversight over its functions. Congress will not be able to pass this bill and walk away. Rather, we will be forced to more closely scrutinize these proposals to better ensure that the new Department will function effectively. I urge my colleagues to support the Byrd amendment.

Let me say this, too. The people who are going to protect this country under a new Homeland Security Department are protecting this country today. They are on the borders every night. They are at the ports of entry. They are at the airports. We saw only recently the FBI arrest of six persons of Yemeni descent. According to the FBI, they constitute a terrorist cell. So the FBI is out there doing its job. We don't have a Department of Homeland Security. It didn't keep the FBI from doing its work. These people are out there every night and every day, 24 hours a day. So the work is going forward. Even if we never create a Homeland Security Department, these people are out there, and they are performing their work, and doing it admirably.

The argument has been made that Senators should oppose my amendment because it would undo the work of the Governmental Affairs Committee and force the Senate to readdress issues that have already been decided. But the Senate has not decided these issues, and they won't be decided even if we pass the Lieberman bill.

Of the 80-plus Federal agencies that currently have homeland security-related functions, we don't know why 28 of those agencies and offices were chosen by the administration and endorsed by the Governmental Affairs Committee to be transferred to this new Department. We don't know how the administration will reorganize these agencies once they are transferred.

We don't even have a budget for this new Department. So we have no idea about the costs associated with implementing it or how the administration plans to pay for this Department. We don't know if and by how much worker protection will be curtailed within this new Department.

Yet the Lieberman bill would have the Congress grant the statutory powers to the administration to create this Department and require only that the President report back to the Congress and to the American people after these decisions have already been made. The Congress would walk away from this new Department and require only that the President let us know how everything turns out.

Mr. President, I will tell you what is delaying the work of homeland security -- the intransigence on the part of the President. He had an opportunity to sign an appropriations bill that would provide $2.5 billion for homeland security -- a total of $5.1 billion. He had an opportunity to sign it as an emergency. All it needed was his name. He had 30 days in which to consider it. He steadfastly refused to sign his name. This is money that is awaiting the President's signature to go throughout this country to aid the people at the local level in making preparations to avoid another terrorist attack, and to ameliorate the effects of such attacks if they occur.

Mr. President, I appreciate this amendment being put forward. I oppose it intensely. I have great respect for the sponsor. But I appreciate it being put forward because, more than any other amendment that we have heard or will hear on this bill, it frames the issue. The question that Senator Byrd's amendment forces every Senator to answer is, Do you want to create a Department of Homeland Security anytime soon? Do you have a feeling of urgency about the disorganization of our Federal Government's response to the terrorist threat, and do you want to respond to it anytime soon?

With all respect, this amendment eviscerates the proposal that came out of our committee, the bipartisan proposal. As I have said earlier in the debate, it builds a house and leaves only the attic with a few people up on top. It creates an army to protect America and the rest of the world against terrorism with a few generals and no soldiers underneath.

I do not see how anyone can vote for this amendment and say they are for adopting and creating a Department of Homeland Security soon. The question is, What happens after 13 months? Under our bill, as Senator Byrd has said, all of the agencies that are going to be part of the new Department have to be transferred within 13 months. To me, that means they are going to be operating together as a whole Department, but they have to be transferred.

What happens under the amendment? All that has to happen in 13 months is that Congress has to act in some way, if Congress 13 months from now decides that it wants to act. It is kind of a moral invocation, if you will. It is not enforceable by anyone. That is why I say that ultimately not only does the amendment eviscerate the bill but it has no end point to it.

Senator Byrd is right. There are Border Patrol and other agencies out there right now, but are they talking to each other? Are they coordinating their strategies? Are they integrating their databases? Are they meshing their command structures? Are they working adequately with State and local officials with the purpose of making every decision on every agency stronger and more effective to protect our Nation? The answer is no.

In a Dear Colleague letter that Senator Byrd sent, he said similar things to what he said on the floor. He said that the "amendment seeks to create a process by which the Congress would retain control over the implementation of this new Department." But it does so at a very high cost. The cost is no guarantee that the Department would be created anytime soon.

I stress that the underlying proposal which came out of our committee does, in fact, protect the right of Congress to oversee and have great influence over the implementation of this new Department, first, and most significantly, through the appropriations process, and, second, we specifically rejected a call by the White House for broad authority to reorganize the components of the new Department notwithstanding what the law says now. We have said in this bill that you can only do what the law allows. If you want to change the law, you have to come back to the place where laws are made; that is, the Congress. We have required that every 6 months the new Secretary come back to Congress and make recommendations to us about any changes he or she wants to make in this Department.
