Homeland Security

Today, U.S. Representatives Emanuel Cleaver, II (MO-05) and Al Green (TX-09) announced that President Obama has included funding for body cameras in his FY2016 budget.
It has slipped from the headlines.
It is a political hot potato.
But it is something I simply could not get out of my mind.
In an unprecedented effort, Congressman Cleaver will lead an intra-parliamentary delegation from the United States and Mexico to our nation's Southern border.
