Texas GOP Sen. John Cornyn and Kyl are co-sponsoring a bill mandating a five billion dollar program that would double the size of the Border Patrol over the next five years, adding 10,000 agents.

Is this in addition to the 10,000 agents that was part of the National Intelligence Reform Act of 2004, or are they just adding back in 10,000 agents because Bush's proposed 2006 budget only asked for 210 agents?

February 9, 2005 -- Officially approved by Bush on Dec. 17 [2004], the National Intelligence Reform Act included the requirement to add 10,000 border patrol agents in the five years beginning with 2006. ... But Bush's proposed 2006 budget, revealed Monday, funds only 210 new border agents.
