The legislation drafted by Senator Mike Lee could attract support from a sizeable number of fellow Senate Republicans and siphon party votes for a separate, House-passed bill terminating Trump’s declaration. Under the emergency declaration that Trump signed on Feb. 15, he would take money from other federal programs to build the barrier.

Right on, Nancy!

Nope my guess is the next president will use it for anything so it was very bad to use to just to get money and steal land from Americans

Get this woman help!!!
