Deadline is Monday to submit public comments
 
McALLEN, Texas (Border Report) — U.S. Customs and Border Protection wants to add 25 miles of new lighting along the Rio Grande in West and South Texas.

The agency is asking for public comments on its proposal which would also include almost 20 miles of upgrading current lights and adding river access roads in Starr and El Paso counties.

CBP has given the public through Monday, which is Earth Day, to comment on its plans that the agency says are necessary for border enforcement.
 

“CBP seeks input on potential impacts to the environment, culture, quality of life and commerce, including potential socioeconomic impacts,” the agency posted on its website.

I guess I'm bad, because when I read "plan to light up" I was hoping it meant (https://i.imgur.com/nX9YeUh.gif)  :whistle:

The only thing that additional lighting will do is make it EASIER for illegals to come across at night.

Forget "lights".
Install about 40ft of concrete wall, instead.
That works, in both the dark AND in the light.

Of course not.  It would make too hard and dangerous to elude the border patrol. :bolt:
