Thanks for the reference. Good article:

"The openness of our ports ... is one of the tremendous marks of success in this global economy, but it also provides an opportunity for terror," said Rep. Dan Lungren, R-Calif., who is sponsoring port security legislation with Rep. Jane Harman, D-El Segundo. "We ought to limit (access) to people who are here legally. We ought to limit it to people who would not jeopardize that security."
