		<title>Comment on Border Trade Alliance Applauds GSA Move to Restore U.S. Border Ports Division by Glenn Edward Roy</title>

					<description>The Border Trade Alliance (BTA) applauded a December 8, 2009 decision by the General Services Administration to reinstate a land border ports-of-entry office that agency shortsightedly shuttered earlier in the summer.

But what does the BTA say about the shuttered border rail port-of-entry (POEs) such as Naco, Arizona / Naco, Sonora, Mexico and Douglas, Arizona / Agua Prieta, Sonora, Mexico which remain closed with border fences across their tracks to nowhere?

Our elected officials in Washington, D.C. tell us these two border crossings remain closed ostensibly to stem the tides of illegal immigration and illicit drug smugling.
 
When will the issues be dealt with to allow the re-opening of the border rail crossings of Naco and Douglas, Arizona?

When will Senators John McCain and Jon Kyl of Arizona promote the political and financial solutions needed to obtain Obama Administration "pork barrel" stimuls package funding to rebuild these important, but decaying border infrastructures?

I say let's proceed vigorously with buildng new ports-of-entry -- as well as rebuilding those now decaying and shuttered due to neglect and lack of courage by our elected officials.

Perhaps the voters need to make some changes in Washington.  2012 is right around the bend!
