House Democrats Block Bill That Would Force
DHS to Finish Construction of Border Wall ...

House Democrats overwhelmingly voted to block consideration for H.R. 2729, also known as the Finish the Wall Act, on Tuesday. The bill, introduced by Rep. Clay Higgins (R-LA), would have required the Department of Homeland Security to resume construction of border wall projects halted by the Biden administration and would prohibit the administration from canceling wall contracts entered into before.

"This bill requires the secretary of Homeland Security to resume construction of the border wall within 24 hours of enactment using funds Congress has already appropriated to building the wall. The wall is more than just a fence," Rep. Andrew Garbarino (R-NY) said in support of the bill. "It includes sensors and technology Border Patrol needs to effectively hold the line. The agents I spoke to at the border are doing everything they can to stop illegal crossings, but they are overwhelmed and under-equipped. Now drug smugglers, human traffickers, gangs, and terrorists are taking full advantage of this vulnerability."

"We must protect our country, we must protect our people, we must finish the wall. This legislation would compel the White House and the Department of Homeland Security to do their jobs. The funding is there, the plans are there, the materials are there. All we lack is leadership from the Oval Office," said Rep. Yvette Herrell (R-NM).

Ordering a halt on the construction of the new border wall system, started by former President Donald Trump, was one of the first acts done by Joe Biden when he was placed in the White House. While some sectors along the U.S.-Mexico border had much of the construction done before the order, such as the El Paso Sector, others like the Rio Grande Valley Sector and Yuma Sector were not so lucky. As a result of the gaps, it has made it much easier for people (with assistance of the Democrat Party) to illegally cross the southern border in large numbers, overwhelming Border Patrol.

The Democratic Party had been planning their attack on democracy and America for quite some time. With the run-up to the 2020 election they recruited Joe Biden to be their puppet with Barack Obama guiding him along with many of his former administration. His job was to sign executive orders, do what Obama asked of him and commence the tearing down of the country. Their first goal was to defeat President Trump, install Biden in the White House and along with the rest of the Democrat Party and media they are well on their way toward the remaking of America so many of us will soon not know it.
