Joe Biden Stops Wall Construction, Ends Anti-Fraud Border ProgramJohn Binder 21 Jan 2021
President Joe Biden stopped the construction of border wall at the United States-Mexico border and suspended a crucial anti-fraud initiative that effectively helped eliminate the Catch and Release program.
In an executive order this week, Biden halted all construction of border wall — 450 miles of which was authorized and built by President Trump’s administration between 2017 and 2020. The wall, Biden claims, “is not a serious policy solution†and “is a waste of money.â€
Likewise, the order ended Trump’s national emergency at the southern border:
I have determined that the declaration of a national emergency at our southern border in Proclamation 9844 of February 15, 2019 (Declaring a National Emergency Concerning the Southern Border of the United States), was unwarranted. It shall be the policy of my Administration that no more American taxpayer dollars be diverted to construct a border wall.
