ABA Attacks Bush's "Misuse" of Attaching Signing Statements
On Tuesday, the Lawyers Group, the American Bar Association approved a resolution condemning President Bush's mis-practice of writing exceptions to legislation he signs into law.
At the ABA's annual meeting, delegates, representing 410,000 members, approved the resolution objecting to any president using bill signing statements to dilute or change laws rather than using a veto.
Only one bill (on stem cell research) has been vetoed by Bush, but the president has written exceptions to 800 legislative provisions, more than all the previous presidents combined.

US Senate approves US-Mexico border fence bill
The US Senate passed the Secure Fence Act of 2006 Friday by a vote of 80-19, authorizing the construction of a 700-mile fence along the US-Mexico border. President Bush is expected to sign the measure, designed to curb illegal immigration into the United States.
A key provision of the bill dictates that the US Department of Homeland Security must have "operational control" over US borders within 18 months in an effort to keep illegal substances and illegal immigrants from entering the US, while also providing for a study to decide whether the government should also construct a fence along the Canadian border. A separate measure will fund construction and maintenance of the fence.
The US House of Representatives passed the border fence bill by a vote of 283-138 September 15. The Mexican government has already expressed its opposition to the scheme.
