Read Napolitano's stimulus budget report below, which was forwarded on December 17, 2009. You can see that she allotted $1 BILLION to airport equipment and $650 MILLION to her new headquarters while only allotting $20 MILLION to ICE Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Projects supported by these funds will not only make the country safer and more secure, but they also will create new jobs, and in some cases, save the jobs of men and women who do the work of staying ahead of those who would seek to do us harm.
