A Federal court ruling on Friday delivered a blow to the Biden administration’s efforts to divert $1.4 billion in funding away from border wall construction. The ruling blocked Biden from pulling the funds that were previously allocated to the wall.
As the legal battle between Texas and the federal government over immigration policies and border security continues.
The court’s decision stems from President Joe Biden’s proclamation in January 2021, terminating the Trump-era national emergency at the southern border and halting the construction of the border wall.
This move effectively put on hold the allocation of funds designated for border wall construction in fiscal years 2020 and 2021, pending a comprehensive review of resources.
